From Righteous Defender to Future Inmate in one bad decision

MIAMI (AP) — A 28-year-old man who chased an attempted burglar down the street and shot him with an assault-style rifle as he begged for his life has been charged with attempted first-degree murder.
Corthoris Jenkins told investigators he was playing video games when the man burst into his Miami area apartment on Tuesday, the Miami Herald reported.
Instead of calling 911, police said Jenkins grabbed the gun and ran after the man, who fell to his knees.
“He begins to what appears to be to beg for his life,” Miami-Dade Detective Iry Watson told a judge on Wednesday afternoon. “But the defendant takes the assault rifle and shoots him multiple times.”
Xavier West, the suspected burglar, remained in the hospital on Friday, and detectives have not yet been able to talk to him.
Jenkins initially told investigators he “blacked out” and couldn’t remember anything about the shooting, a police report said.

Police: Man chases down suspected burglar, shoots him

Yes, he broke in, but at the presence of the firearm, he gave up and assumed a surrendering position: The clock on the original Forcible Felony had run out and use of deadly in self-defense is no longer in play.

That does not mean he could not have kept the rifle aimed at his sorry ass while the cops showed up. Or have him get out of the house while saying some choice words about filling his ass with the appropriate amount of bullets since you have video inside the house. I like this better because when the cops arrive, you are not holding a weapon (if you are smart) and avoid getting shot your own self by the arriving officers.

And then, some more:

Police found eight bullet casings on the ground near West, the police report said. Officers found Jenkins walking away from the shooting scene, and he immediately gave up his gun, authorities said.

Shot him 8 times and he is still alive? Was it a .22LR?

Prosecutor Khalil Quinan told the judge that surveillance video showed the shooting was premeditated. Glazer agreed.
“He had time for reflection as he’s pointing the gun as he’s begging on his knees. That’s premeditation,” the judge said.

And this smells like his ego took over his brain, dumb decision.

As for Mr. West, the home invader, he is still in the hospital and about to be violated on his parole for Robbery with a deadly weapon.

What could have been a regular case of self-defense ends up with a charge of attempted first degree murder because of bad choices and probably never actually think about “what would happen if…?”   I am going to speculate and say whatever knowledge of defensive use of a firearm Mr. Jenkins had, came out of movies, TV or the media in general, not credible legal sources.

Screw St. Paul

Officials: Man Shot by St. Paul Officer Streamed Sex Assault

A man livestreamed his sexual assault of a former girlfriend on social media and threatened to kill her shortly before he was shot and wounded by a St. Paul police officer who was criticized by the city’s police chief for firing at him, according to a criminal complaint.

The complaint filed in Dakota County District Court said Joseph Javonte Washington, 31, forced the woman to drive from her home in Lakeville to St. Paul following the assault on Saturday and caused the vehicle to crash.

Police tracked Washington to a dumpster after he fled on foot. When he climbed out, the Black man was stunned with a taser and attacked by a police dog before being shot by Officer Anthony Dean.

Police Chief Todd Axtell said the suspect was naked and unarmed at the time and shouldn’t have been shot. Axtell said Tuesday he took “swift, decisive and serious action” against the officer, but didn’t release details.

Save a woman from potentially being murdered after a violent sexual assault live streamed by a psycho and get in trouble for it.

The only trouble this guy should get in if for poor marksmanship and be sent to the range for some practice.

I side with Detective Callahan on this one.

Fuck St. Paul.

He’s probably right

Maybe Musk will beat the Chinese but NASA won’t.

Why?

Because if you work for the Chinese Space Agency and write a paper about how going to the moon is racist colonialism or how we should rename celestial objects like the Sombrero Galaxy because it’s racist, the CCP will take you outside and shoot you in the back of the skull.

Florida Media has to hate the idea of the Wuhan Vaccine

How the hell are they going to criticize DeSantis if Wuhan loses its scare factor?
Still to this date and according to the local rags, nothing that the governor has done has been right and probably is criminal. It does not matter if our state has been less affected by all consequences of the virus compared to the great Democratic-led states who are in the brink of social decomposition: DeSantis worse than Orange Man seems to be the only tune in their repertoire.

Maybe he should start chasing Jews and allow for riots like DeBlasio and Cuomo did.  Perhaps then our local media will soften his stance against the Governor… yeah, right.

This is the crap that weakens my position against lynching.

From Spain:

The headline translates to:

Three years for ex leader of the Socialist Youths of Elche for distributing videos of adults raping newborns.

He was also tied for the rape of a 2 year old girl, member of his family, but the court, but the court rejected a conversation he had with another fellow deviate where he admitted the crime. He also admitted he got off watching the videos of the babies being raped: “I imagine them, screaming and crying while I violate them. A newborn being nailed.”

In another exchange, the fucking evil fiend confesses that he felt “Control, pleasure. That the life (of the baby) is in my hands. That by simply squeezing her throat, her life was over.”

I really feel for the cops investigating this case. It is reported that they ended up crying and throwing up as they gathered the evidence against this … I really can’t find an appellative low enough to assign to this entity.

And about the sentence, it is not unusual in cases like this. Spain is lagging a century on how it deals with sexual predators. I have no idea on the rest of Europe, but I fear it may be similar.
