Buffalo_Gal Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 (edited) Anyone here live in Arkansas?Krissy Noble killed a man in self-defense: legal, courts say. But she used her husband's gun. Cue the prosecution.Last December, while 11 weeks pregnant, Krissy Noble was attacked in her Arkansas home by an intruder. The intruder had come by the apartment earlier, asking for her husband, but she didn’t know him. On checking, she found out that her husband did not know the man, either; it later turned out that the name he gave Noble was false. When he came by again, she was on the phone with her husband, who said that he would send a neighbor to check out the situation. At the door, however, she was tackled and punched. Breaking free, and fearing for her life — and that of her child — she grabbed her husband’s pistol, which she had placed on the coffee table after the first suspicious visit , and shot the man three times. Then she ran to the neighbor’s apartment and told her to call 911. Edited September 7, 2018 by Buffalo_Gal

Expand And just think...by this precedent, if the attacker had a gun, and she's wrestled it away from him and shot him, she'd still be guilty of illegal possession of a firearm. I can't imagine a jury convicting her on this.

Expand That would be a fun plea negotiation with the DA: "Either dismiss the charges and stop hassling this woman, or I'll humiliate you in front of a jury, then hold a press conference to make fun of you further after the acquittal."

Expand I’m a “guns guy” and that’s a complex issue, man. I don’t want some untrained jackass shooting down a corridor, especially if the halls are made of cinderblock/brick as is the case in many schools. I think most people are too stupid to carry in a school.

Hell of a precedent if it isn't irrelevant. But humans aren't RoboCops. Stresses cause humans to breakdown, make mistakes. Like "thinking about seeing family and friends ever again." Then those thoughts while doing the job should be irrelevant.

I’ve been saying for years cops need higher standards and higher pay. Kinda hard to argue with me when they do crap like this. A girl i used to date in high school — her brother heard a noise in his kitchen and went to check it out. 3 of “Atlanta’s finest.” They shot him in the leg and killed his dog because they not only went to the wrong house but they let themselves in through an unlocked door. Retarded cops are a very real thing and very concerning. Itd be cool if their standards weren’t the same as Walmart’s. On 9/8/2018 at 6:46 PM, ExiledInIllinois said: Might not be.

A man lost his life because of woman and her tiny brain. Sad.
