School teacher killed by police for rolling up her car window

[Brian4Liberty]

I didn't know he was a vet. While this doesn't negate what he did, I have to wonder what effect the war might have had on him? He'd very well may have seen "checkpoint shootings" with the tragedy level going both ways.

Yeah, that was my thought as well. You have to wonder if his "training" and experience in Iraq or Afghanistan came back with him to be used here. A reflex action. Another reason why Officers need to be carefully screened before being hired.

Hold your excitement people. When all else fails, accuse the Jury of misconduct!

The conviction of a former Culpeper police officer could be thrown out just 24 hours after jurors convicted him of murder. Daniel Harmon-Wright was found guilty on three counts in the 2012 shooting death of Patricia Cook.

With his head hung low and his hands and feet in shackles, Harmon-Wright was brought into court for what was supposed to be his sentencing hearing after being convicted Tuesday of manslaughter. Instead, it was the jurors under oath after it was discovered two dictionaries and one thesaurus were brought into the jury room during deliberations, a violation of the judge’s rules.

Six jurors admitted to looking up definitions of at least one of these words: "malice," "malicious," or "unlawful."

Daniel Harmon-Wright guilty of voluntary manslaughter

I dont think Ive ever read such a sympathetic article for someone who needlessly killed another person.

So a judge "instructs" a jury they cannot look up a word to be certain of its meaning?

It means what it says we mean Mundane, now shut the fuck up.

I have not seen any evidence of leniency by the "Just-Us" system regarding veterans accused of a capitol crime unless they're a member of the law enforcement community.

This behavior alone is discriminatory.

I would like to see any LEO accused of a crime actually stand in front of a prosecutor/judge and jury that were not part and party to the LEO's daily activities..

This is only one isolated instance of a cop actually being prosecuted, there are thousands of crimes committed by LEO's that should be prosecuted but will never see the light of day due to the inherent cronyism of the "Just-Us" system...

Most of the DAs, Gov paid defense lawyers, Bailiffs, LEOs, and Judges are golfing buddies... It's a tightly-knitted community and as previously stated, it truly has become in America, the: "JUST US SYSTEM".

Because...

"If only half of those motherfuckers in the state's attorney 's office didn't want to be judges, didn't want to be partners in some downtown law firm, if half of them had the fucking balls to follow through, you know what would happen? A guy like that would be indicted, tried and convicted. But no, everybody stays friends. Everybody gets paid. And everybody's got a fucking future."

When a "public servants" pay is not regularly voted on and amended by the actual public that is supposedly represented then the servant is the master...

I do not accept public servants as my masters!

Ahh yes, clearly guilty of murder, managed to get convicted of voluntary manslaughter, and STILL going to get off because someone was offended that people wanted to know the clear definition of 'malice' when deciding between manslaughter and murder.

Serve the Defense Attorney right if they said "Ok, we'll vacate manslaughter and replace it with murder!"

Ain't much there. You'd be bored to death. Unless you wanted to take courses at Liberty University. Which would still pretty much bore you to death.

You can do a lot worse than Lynchburg.
