There is no doubt in my mind that the jury could come to no other conclusion that Bruce Emery caused the death of this fine upstanding tagger.

Well he hadn't been doing it long so we hear according to the article above.

Your thoughts?

728157 2008-12-12 07:59:00 This may also be a thought for those that replied to the burglar alarm thread while carrying items that could cause serious injury or death. Sweep (90)
728158 2008-12-12 08:01:00 He killed someone over nothing. They should string him up.

The end.

728159 2008-12-12 08:15:00 I hope he gets found not guilty on his forthcoming appeal. The jury struggled for a verdict there is an element of doubt. The crooks were ambushing him, so it was lucky he had the knife otherwise it might have been him dead. prefect (6291)
728160 2008-12-12 08:24:00 Probably time the general public had access to the transcripts of the trial.
A transcript will not reveal the general demeanour of the witnesses however.

Sure, As long as the person he killed is found not dead.

728162 2008-12-12 08:25:00 The person he killed was also breaking the law by tagging. The teen apparently sprayed paint into Bruce's face. He did it in self-defence.

728163 2008-12-12 08:27:00 So, If I grab a knife, run 300 meters down the road,confront someone, stab them until they are dead, Its self-defence.

Then what isn't self defence?

How about I get a gun, drive around till I see someone, Confront them, shoot them, claim self-defence.

728164 2008-12-12 08:28:00 He should be let off IMO. Was he NOT outnumbered and surrounded?....I wonder how many time since the surviving teenagers have ambushed an upstanding citizen and threatened him? SolMiester (139)
728165 2008-12-12 08:34:00 Outnumbered ambushed and getting sprayed in the face by paint and maybe the crook fell onto the knife. Looks like another Arthur Allan Thomas jack up here. prefect (6291)
