Almost all other states in America require a unanimous decision. Louisiana is one of two states that allows a criminal conviction with only 10 of 12 jurors voting guilty which is what happened here.

The judge made the right call 30 years. He will probably become some black dudes sweetie.

OR that this kind of story is likely to be repeated all too often.

Bottom line is if you have a gun and chose to use it to defend yourself you better be 110% RIGHT in using it. Gasser could of NOT USED his gun in this situation and is going to pay the price for doing so.

He left his son without a father. Thank the NRA for the continuing gun fetish in the USA. No one wins here.

RIP JOE missed by the CFL and NFL.
