Because when you are inexperienced and hold a gun sideways trying to look all hard it's difficult to hit what you are aiming at. Collateral damage is probably what he will claim.
Could have been s classic case of insurance fraud gone wrong. Someone sees a Benz like that behind him and slams on the brakes to get a settlement. Who knows what the intent was. Every scenario and speculation leads to the same point. It could have been avoided.

Problem isn't the Louisiana Legal System, problem is the Orleans Parish Legal System...

That's not the point...

The Orleans Parish Legal System is inept, depraved and corrupt; with surging murder statistics, there should be a higher capital murder, murder one, conviction rate and yet the OPLS is among the worst in the nation; and so murderers go unchecked, experienced for their next vileness making building cases for conviction even less likely...

I saw this story a couple days before this shooting happened and wonder if a lack of state appointed defense attorneys led to the 2nd degree murder charge vs 1st degree ... http://www.theneworleansadvocate.com...to-defend-them ... it seemed like they could hold a suspect longer under 2nd degree without appointing a state attorney vs 1st degree, #shrug.
