You cannot be committing a crime and claim self defense. If that gun was a straw purchase (which he is ADMITTING TO WAPO) then there's no world in which a jury will acquit him.
He wont be charged for murder. At best, unlawful possession of a weapon which is best case scenario.
Even homeowner felons who illegally obtain weapons and defend their homes will still be charged for illegal possession but not murder in self defense cases.
Yeah I’m thinking this is part of a plea deal being set up
Cop to the illegal weapons charge all the bullshit murder charges go away. He gets time served plus community service (which he was already doing for free cuz he’s a fucking hero)
