In Oklahoma, there was a pharmacist that went to jail for shooting and armed robber. The pharmacist shot him twice and then stood over him and proceeded to emptied his gun.

I saw the whole vid. I my mind, the robber was already expired and the last shots didn't do anything. To say it another way, "No harm, no foul." I've watched hours of Police Activity vids and I've watched cops dump nearly full mags on suspects after they drop. Yes, they operate on offensive and civilians operate on defense. However, they often act with severe regret and some even sob. This tells me that when stress is high, your body just reacts without much thought because that is how animals are designed to survive.

He had adrenaline pumping and obviously didn’t know what to do. The problem I see is he didn’t think about that first guy that was robbed, he was directly in the line of fire, if he missed or a bullet went through he could have easily shot that poor guy that just wanted to eat his dinner. I’m combat veteran so it’s not fair to criticize someone who’s never had to shoot someone. He should have been more aware of his surroundings before he fired. I would have gone for a single head shot at that distance after making sure everything was clear in the direction I was firing, kicked the gun away and called the police. Then I could have finished my dinner while waiting for them to get 12:07 there. I’ve seen people take a fatal body shot and get off 10 rounds before they collapsed, it’s not like the movies.

This seems like an old case. First off the thug offered his life in exchange for potential bounty by robbery. Getting put down clearing flagging everyone with what looks to be a convincing gun. Is asking to be counter engaged. Follow up shot, well police shoot again and again just because you twitch. So if they can do it so can citizens. The cop excuse they are resisting, still near a weapon, poses a danger. This is a clear present danger situation. That robber has opted to not be a civil person. No further look is needed. It's not like the guy pulled in the dude and started blasting a random person.

[@MortRouge]

Respectfully, I disagree. If you are justified in firing one shot then you are justified in emptying that magazine. There is no difference between the first round that leaves the gun to the last round that leaves the gun. I understand the need to validate the perception of self-defense.

I think it's impossible for us to know. If that was his first incident (and it statistically probably is), there may have been quite a bit of -- what I call -- "emotional momentum". 99% of us Americans watch too many movies and too many TV shows where the bad guy gets up after being shot 4 times, so he may have just been making sure. May have been jumped up on sugar and caffeine. (You'd be surprised how much a Mountain Dew could change your whole world view.) Who knows? I certainly don't. A good lawyer will ask the right questions and put together a decent compilation of not just the actions that took place, but the hypotheticals going through the guy's head.

One of my coworkers tells the tale of a local man, years ago, who ended up in a self defense situation. He shot the kid trying to rob/attack him, then walked over and gave him the coupe de grace. At trial they asked him why he felt the need to do that after the attacker was already down, to which he replied that it was what they taught him during WW2, and it just happened. He was trained that way and it was instinctual. The jury let him walk. I'd like to know what the background on this concealed carrier was, and if this may have been a same type situation.

I would consider these two secondary questions. #1 was the person already dead after the first 4 shots? If so, shooting a corpse is not murder and only serves to show an agitated mental state from stress. That might not be a criminal act. Or it might be a criminal act, but the jury might have seen it as too insignificant compared to the gravity of what happened. #2 if the person was still alive when further shots were fired, were the subsequent shots made in response to actions or movements? 4 shots doesn't mean that they were fatal. There's a lot of questions that are uncertain even from the description of the situation we have from you.

[@Jman531]

Honestly, 4 shots are questionable, two I can see, and a third if necessary, but 4, then 5 more, police do that all the time. But most self-defense laws say that you can fire only the number to stop the person. So I agree with you that this could be excessive, but I can also see a grand jury justifying this shoot. My training is fire two shots initially, then another if the threat is still there, and then continue to fire until the threat stopped. The shot this concealed carrier first made would have stopped the threat in most cases, and a 3rd and 4th definitely would have ended the threat. So this was a questionable shoot due to the number of times fired.

[@BarneyFife1776]

[@alancranford3398]

The 1964 Warren Commission Report was essentially a Grand Jury hearing--the prosecution's case against Oswald. There is more than a bit of Star Chamber secret trials in Grand Jury hearings, but the Fifth Amendment starts with "No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces or in the Militia when in actual service in time of War or public danger;" Basics Civics... Understand this--only innocent people are put on trial in the USA--at trial, the state must prove to a jury that the defendant is guilty. A Grand Jury is not a finding of guilt, only a green light to hold a public trial for the defendant. Keeping evidence presented to the most high-profile Grand Jury hearing in the 20th Century secret is in line with Grand Jury procedures. An unusual amount of the prosecutor's theory of the crime has been released to the American public even though it has taken six decades. A defendant may plead guilty, may opt for trial by only a judge (capital crimes may not permit this), or a jury finds the defendant guilty, the defendant may be incarcerated to protect the public and prevent flight or prevent the defendant from terrorizing the jury, but until determined guilty at trial or unless the defendant pleads guilty, the defendant is innocent and the burden of proving guilt is on the State. That means the defendant isn't convicted--yet. Dead people can't be tried in court for capital crimes. Grand Juries do NOT determine guilt, nor is a "no true bill" anything more than "we don't have enough to hang the scoundrel; not this time." Grand Juries, unlike the criminal trials, can be held over and over and over again until the indictment is secured--much like flinging spaghetti against the wall to see what sticks. Two cases of multiple Grand Juris were the Zimmerman/Martin case in Florida and the Kenosha Kid mass shooting trial with Kyle Rittenhouse--and the only reason that both were not immediately hauled into federal court after being found not guilty (as happened in several high-profile police brutality cases such as the Rodney King trials) was that in Federal Grand Juries couldn't make any indictments stick on Zimmerman or Rittenhouse. That Houston man who killed an armed robber in a taco bar didn't commit any crime that a federal Grand Jury could haul him in for. Oswald's Dallas shooting spree wasn't in violation of federal laws at the time. It was up to Texas to charge him (done) and then he charges would have to go before a Texas Grand Jury before Oswald could be put on trial. There is no defense presented during the Grand Jury hearing, only "is there enough to hang the scoundrel?" Serving as a Grand Jury for a dead man, the Warren Commission ruled "Oswald did it all by his lonesome and wasn't influenced by anybody other than Oswald's inner demons." Never forget the influence of the Court of Public Opinion and that rare property of Common Sense on a real jury during a real capital crime. What would the charge be? Premeditated murder? Homicide during mutual combat? Losing it when finding out that the robber had fooled everybody with hi fake gun? "It's a Monday, I hate Mondays, just hang him!" Because the Grand Jury cannot determine guilt or decide to acquit, the Double Jeopardy ("nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb;) apply--the only peril suffered is going to trial, and the Grand Jury is a hearing to establish if there is sufficient evidence to convict, not if the accused is guilty. In other words, years down the road another Texas Grand Jury may issue an indictment. Unlikely--the State is loath to admit error, more so that the newspapers who headline a report found false and put a retraction on Page 8. On the other hand, once the armed robber fled or surrendered or was otherwise no longer an active threat, the Law requires a cease fire. It's no longer defense when the robber is no longer an imminent threat. Local laws may vary. I've had concealed carry permits in Nevada and Utah where it is an affirmative defense to use deadly force to prevent someone who has committed a forcible felony in your presence from escaping. I've also been a licensed unarmed licensed security guard in Arizona, California, Nevada and Utah over a 30-year period and the "stop a felon from escaping" was a very iffy justification in California for a private citizen (security guards are acting as private citizens who represent property owners--with some exceptions if the property owner is the state government or Uncle Sam). An autopsy wouldn't be able to prove if the Houston man fired shots into an already dead robber or if the robber was still alive and conscious when those final shots were fired. What's the penalty for desecrating corpses in Texas? Alive or dead, who at the scene was authorized to declare the robber dead? That's a job for the legal guys!

Unfortunately, no matter what the thug has done, as defenders we're held to an extreme standard. Shooting as he's leaving etc., not a problem, because the threat is still present.

Clearly you didn't watch the video fully. If you disarm a threat, you don't continue shooting. If this man wasn't tried in Texas, there would be a high chance he'd go to jail.
