Quoted: I'm where you are at from a legal standpoint. He was asked to leave and refused. This meets trespass. Shooter had a legal right to be there and to be armed. He was within his right to use force at that point, but not deadly force. Dead guy then advanced on him, told him he was going to take his gun and use it on him, then grabbed, swatted, or whatever at the gun and then tossed the guy around. At this point I'd say he met the reasonable threshold of deadly force. Back it up 45 seconds and I would personally never have gotten involved outside of telling him to leave, telling GF to come inside, and then sit inside waiting for the police or him to leave.

Quoted: A court order does not have force of law in Texas? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Anyone posted the relevant law on kidnapping? https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/PE/htm/PE.20.htm The shooters actions appear to meet both criteria for abduction, though only one is required. The shooter is not a relative of the child, by the definition in this section, and since it was in violation of a court order, the intent to assume control was not lawful. A case could also be made for aggravated kidnapping, by (a)(5) since there seems to be evidence they intended to terrorize the father, and by (b) since the shooter used deadly force during the commission. The kid wasn't even there and he wasn't keeping anyone from anyone. Your analysis is quite literally garbage. That's the point. The kid wasn't there. They took the kid somewhere else, in violation of a court order. You're either ignoring my point on purpose or just are missing it entirely. Assuming the court order stated they were to exchange at that time and place, one party not holding up their end of the deal isn't even in the same universe as kidnapping. You trying to equate it to aggravated kidnapping is just absolutely garbage. A court order does not have force of law in Texas? Not holding up your end of a court ordered custody arrangement does NOT even come close to equating to kidnapping, let alone aggravated kidnapping. I'm going to assume you're being purposely ignorant now. |

You wanna see something that magically turns grown adults into retards, get dispatched to a child custody call sometime.
You fuck her/him, you deal with the consequences. Civil matter. In my state court orders for custody mean NOTHING to law enforcement and are unenforceable without a law enforcement clause which are very rare. Dude should of fucked off the property and crawled up her ass with a bloodsucking family attorney. |

Quoted: I don’t want to misquote you here. Are you saying in TX if someone who doesn’t own the property tells you to leave, it doesn’t matter that you have permission from the actual owner? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: That's the shitty thing here, we don't have all the information. Knowing attorneys I don't expect things to be told by them if it could be something to help their case in court. Who owns the property has no factor here under Texas law. I don’t want to misquote you here. Are you saying in TX if someone who doesn’t own the property tells you to leave, it doesn’t matter that you have permission from the actual owner? That wouldn't be allowed. If you have permission from the owner. At the same time it's not an easy answer. There are a lot of factors in it all. |

If you retreat into your house and then come back with a gun, guess what, you are now the aggressor.
Had dead guy followed you in the house then at that point its game on. If you were really in such fear that you thought you needed a gun then you should have stayed inside with said gun once you got it. Going back outside with a gun after you had escaped the situation you were in fear of in the first place is what is sending this shooter to prison for a long time. Some of you need to brush up on the law. You cant shoot some unarmed guy for not leaving your property without catching a felony murder case. |

Quoted: Gotcha. Looks like the opposite MAY have been the case anyways, so not applicable. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: That wouldn't be allowed.

Looks like the opposite MAY have been the case anyways, so not applicable. Under Texas law the owner versus the possessors of property create a gray line. There are a whole lot of factors in this situation. And unfortunately a lot of information we don't know. |
