That's false. It is absolutely the duty of the AG to decide. You do not bring charges against people unless you have the evidence to convince a jury beyond a reasonable doubt.
Self defense can absolutely stop a charge in my state. A determination is made by the DA, or by a grand jury. Not sure about wisconsin or federal rules. I hope the feds take the case out of the democrat DAs hands.
It was. But the self defense plea always comes after a lawyer has attempted to charge you with something. Otherwise there would be no reason for it as you'd have no charges to defend yourself against
Homicide detectives can consult with the DA and decide if it's self-defense. They don't have to charge him to determine if it's self-defense. Looks they're jumping to conclusions again and the only thing the kid will have to worry about is the gun charge.
They can, but that usually only happens if it's clear what happened. If there's any argument to be had, there's a good chance you'll have to argue it in court rather than have the charges be dropped.
Like guy breaks into your home and you shoot him, that’s pretty obvious on self defense
If there’s reasonable doubt in the moment I can understand arresting someone while you figure it out
It’s death, not petty property theft so it’s usually better to err on the side of public safety and keep a possible murderer off the streets until more info can come out
That seems pre emptive. Also 1st degree? It looked like self defense to me
If they aren’t commies.
And see the rest of the city burned?
The AG had to charge him, and let a jury make that decision.

I believe this AG is a Dem...
Illinois, and the guy shot two lefties.
Oh, and charging free people for defending themselves is all the rage for lefty AG's.
Illinois is just extraditing to Wisconsin, who is charging him with murder.
tbf, in this case i think the arrest is for the kids own protection. antifa doxed him and is planning on attacking his family
You see how it feels when someone arrests you and tells you it’s for your own protection.
Fuck bois on twitter are going to eat this 1st degree charge up.

Soros Prosecutor (probably) charging high... hoping for a plea deal.
pleas deal? Maybe.
My money is on just to get in the news cycle and further scare Americans from exercising 2A
Or leverage against whomever gave him the weapon. That guys probably get hit with a charge for providing a firearm to a minor.
Or hoping for him to be found not guilty cuz it's very clearly not 1st degree, then more riots when that happens

Exactly, some cases are super obvious
Like guy breaks into your home and you shoot him, that’s pretty obvious on self defense

Neat. I don't know these things cause I've never shot anyone
Yet.
Lmao
Guess alot of people are about to find out about that sadly
It was self defense, but we live in clown world where our laws are overseen by the Department of Banana Justice.
