... deserves to be watched:
According to McNeil’s testimony, when he pulled up to his house, Epp was next door grabbing something from his truck and stuffing it in his pocket. McNeil quickly grabbed his gun from the glove compartment in plain view of Epp who was coming at him “fast.” McNeil jumped out of the car and fired a warning shot at the ground insisting that Epp back off. Instead of retreating, Epp charged at McNeil while reaching for his pocket, so McNeil fired again, this time fatally striking Epp in the head..Yep, McNeil was convicted and the GA Supreme Court upheld the conviction.
I note that in a lot of court decisions, the facts are mostly looked at in a light most favorable to the prosecution. It really needs to be the other way around.
