Yes, he appealed his sentence and was successful.
***I didn't background check the end sentencing/pleas with these articles; I just wanted to show that you'll generally be charged initially***
But ask yourself. Even if you're found Not Guilty, you'll be spending thousands of dollars on a lawyer to take care of the issue for you, not to mention the personal battles, and change in your life, as well as any psychological damage you may have from shooting/killing another man.
You gotta do what you gotta do, and I'll be painted as one of the spineless people that will roll over, but I digress...
I'm not about to shoot a guy that is in my barn, for the sake of being in my barn... Because for all I know from 100 yards away, he could be my neighbour or some drunk kid that is beyond stupefied from intoxication, and wandered in there by accident. Too many variables, for me to shoot first and ask questions later... And I'd rather my kids have to grow up without a quad than without a dad.
Just my two cents, now flame away.
