Don't do that. Why would you try to unload your gun while driving. Pull over, park.
I get you might have to go into the Post Office or Court, but then you would be securing your FA.

Bull.

Unless the bullet exited shooters vehicle through the door, I call BS as well.

The van in the picture is in the right lane. Seems an awkward angle for a right-handed person to point a gun while unloading it. Being that one of the charges is 3rd degree murder, I may not be the only one who doesn't believe him.

Was he driving a Subaru?

 

[Knobgoblin]

Not sure what the temperature outside was that morning, but if no windows got shot out I would surmise words and middle fingers were being exchanged.

So sad father of 4. RIP

Darn big exit hole for a 9mm. Even a 45. And then enter another vehicle.

unpreventable my A$$! Keep your booger hook of the damn bang switch when you don't want it to go bang!

Add me to the I do not believe it any more than the dog ate his homework when he was in school. He shot the guy over some perceived disrespect now he has to come up with an excuse to blame the gun just going off.

when you don't want it to go bang!

Oh, he very much wanted it to go bang!........

Guy is one lying sack 'o chit!

I also call B.S...
Especially since he left the scene of a so-called "accidental shooting" and only called the police after consulting with an attorney.

AND - I'd bet on he eventually 'rolled over ' and admitted this was intentional - but that most likely will never be revealed however the 3rd degree murder charge denotes 'intent'.

The interesting part of this is the 'video' part of the story has 'road rage' written all over it but the written part highlights the 'unloading' part with 'road rage' only mentioned in one part of it.

I always point my gun and peoples heads when I'm unloading it, especially at traffic lights.

 

[ma96782]

Do I believe the "story" of an AD?

Well....I don't count. So, the Jury can/will decide that.

Aloha, Mark

Well, he has a face you would instantly trust, right?



Uh, nope.

 

[Prefontaine]

I'm interested in hearing about this later as his legal strategy unravels.

So would I. Maybe it will make it to Court TV.

 

[Prefontaine]

I guess, technically, he was unloading his weapon. Most people drop the mag and rack the slide. Others...

Where's the bullet hole in the van's window?

This whole story is stinky.
