Trespassing? So walking to someones door looking for the owner of the house is now Trespassing? Wtf
Not a lawyer. By the letter of the law, yes.
They had to jump the fence - presumably the gate was secured - in order to get to the house. Further, they walked around the property looking for the owner. This looks to anyone without more knowledge, very much like trespassing.
Just my 2 cents, I'm not trying to defend or accuse anyone.
It doesn't look like trespassing, it was trespassing, and particularly suspicious at that. If he'd shot him after they hopped the fence it'd be one thing, but that's not what happened. He shot the kid after they'd gotten back in the car and left the property.
Not trying to but you literally did
Now hold on mate, just listing facts is not the same as an endorsement of a conclusion. The same can be said about NOT listing facts. All the information available should be presented to allow for informed opinions.
No
2 cents has different value around the world. To me yours currently is worth a lot.
