I'm struggling to see the significance of calling 911 in this situation. He openly admitted to killing them both, so whether he called 911 or not, is not going to swing his case one way or the other.

EDIT: I have to apologize for this thread. I got side tracked by the nitpicking, and then started to veer off on my own tangent thought that is better left discussed in its own thread. So again, one low-life murdered some other low-lifes. I'll stop nitpicking in this thread because I'm getting on my own nerves.

Had he dialed 911 instead of waiting, THEN confessing instead of an Attorney he may have had a chance of a self defense situation. Instead he waited, then confessed w/out benefit of representation. Either way the shooter should be found guilty and spend his remaining time on this planet behind bars.

Yeah I can see that, but any good defense lawyer should be able to play it off as being shaken up, scared, not knowing what to do etc.

Premeditated in my mind is him going to their house, killing them there, breaking a window in his house, then dragging them downstairs and calling the next day.


at the end of the day, I hope he gets a good trial, the jury does their civic duty...and that's it. I won't lose any sleep over the guy, or the two home intruders. I know I would have done things different and that is enough for me.

i wonder if this was just a drug deal gone bad that got sorta covered up as a bugulary....why the hel wouldnt you call the police till the next day

I think this is a pretty accurate assessment.

It would have been a much better ending if the man had a big old dog, and the dog ate both of the bodies...
