Too many, "hold my beer..." analogies in this one.
RIP Tveidt.
Hope Nutter receives a competent defense attorney and a fair trial.
He worked in a fast food joint -- I suspect he'll get a public defender.
It probably was a good self-defense shooting based on the deceased's friends' description of it, but there is a big problem with him not calling for help. The person who died didn't die right there, and so I wonder if Nutter's failure to call for assistance will hurt him. I can understand why he would flee with a group of people already proven to be violent, but his failure to make a call to 911 at the earliest opportunity is likely going to bite him badly -- the prosecutor will argue making the call could have saved the attacker's life. At least I suspect that will be an argument.
