Yup. Overcharged out the ass. Any competent defense should be able to get him off.

that boy is GOING to get a first class defense team.

as long as this doesnt wash out to be a glowop, which it doesnt look like it is, we are not going to let him twist in the wind. No effing way.

The gun lobbies better be showing up for this kid. If a public crowd funding can be done as well to give him multiple top notch lawyers.

crowd funding will have to be done by some non-compromised method, i.e. not gofundme etc.

gofundme would shut it down if it were for a conservative, they've done it before

If he didn't run across state lines it would be much easier to defend his case.

Edit: fact checks now show he didn't run.

True. Wish the guy informed police. Probably freaked out. No one wants to shoot someone, but if it's your life or theirs.. well..

Here's what I've read:

He did inform them. He dialed 911 and told them about the first shooting, the police asked him to make his way to where they were. He was in the process of doing that when he fell down and started getting attacked and shot the two other dudes. Then you see him get up and start walking towards the police as the police were coming towards him. The video stops there, but I would have to believe the police detained him and then let him go. Only after the fact, when he's in his home, do they press charges.

How can someone help this kid and make sure he isn't "made an example of" with an unjust sentence?

Hopefully Barnes.

I don't know if Robert does criminal and frankly, I wouldn't want anyone but a criminal defense specialist.

He needs a Barnes like criminal defense attorney.

This is one of the things that I think Barnes sees that many others don't. This isn't a criminal trial, it's a political one. At the very least Barnes should be on the shortlist of people to call to find someone able to handle a political trial. You are spot on that a Barnesesque lawyer is required, a goddamn warrior, fuck, can someone get Don Jr a bar examination in California, Virginia, Vermont, or Washington? He seems like he'd go all out.

charges can be changed by superseding indictments

the whole point is to have him get off so there can be more riots

The viedo evidence is clear self defense. Charlie and his Uncle from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia could get him off using only bird law.

I have a feeling overcharging him is entirely the point. There's a wink wink nod nod that the DA is giving to this kid but in order to quell the public outrage just charge him and have the case collapse at trial by that time people have forgotten about it.

I hope you're right.
