LJB Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 i wont bother posting a link to this story because it depends on where you read your news as to how the story gets "reported" and who the victim is... the worker or the poor guy who pulled a gun on him and shot him... same DA office who is indicting trump, right?

VakAttack Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 This incident just happened. Cops made the arrests, prosecutor hasn't done anything yet. Cops make arresting decisions based on probable cause (very low standard) and then prosecutors will look at evidence and see what charges, if any, the arrested person will face, i.e. what charges they think they can prove beyond a reasonable doubt. I would guess the parking lot attendant is not likely to be charged with anything unless there's evidence he shot the alleged thief when a reaspnable person wouldn't have, for example, if after wrestling the gun away, he had the thief at gunpoint and 5 minutes later, just shot him. Relatively standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJB Posted April 2, 2023 Author Share Posted April 2, 2023 Moussa Diarra, 57, is charged with attempted murder, assault and criminal possession of a weapon fair point... so these charges are just what he is booked with by the police? if that is the case i am slightly less horrified, but, still... the charges alone seem ridiculous...

Yes. Bragg was quoted in a couple of articles saying they haven't made any charging decisions yet. Thinking more on this, for the police to arrest him on scene (as opposed to later after an investigation) may indicate that there's more we the public don't know yet.

Plasmodium Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Diarra is a West African name, which explains the arrest. #BLM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
