Killed the girl over pulling into or out of his driveway...scary world we live in.

[-------------------DD]

I'm glad he got the maximum sentence. Sorry for the girl's family. RIP

This almost happened to me in upstate PA just below the NYS border. I was lost and pulled into a drive way to turn around and an elderly man almost immediately ran out with a shotgun. Very scary and super unnecessary.

That is not castle law or self defense. Thank you judge.

[dreamachines]

What kind of an animal kills someone so senselessly?

[lilactuliee]

So many unhinged savage behaving monsters on the loose. It's mind blowing this young lady lost her life over nothing.

But the white man who shot a boy for knocking on the wrong door is set free. Sad injustice world we love in

[BC-nyzb]

Scared men with weapons are the biggest cowards on the planet.

You literally could've just waited n watched her leave. Sadly this is how a lot of people think and act. And they should receive the same punishment

Thank God this maniac is behind bars. Literally shooting somebody for turning around in his driveway, my God, how crazy

[Seminooos]

Absolutely wicked behavior. That’s no reason to shoot at someone.

I was near Sheboygan WI and pulled over on the side of a long driveway to a home to fix my wipers and a woman came out with a shotgun and asked why I was there. True story. Happened a couple years ago. Country folk just being country always thinking another person out to take their shit

*They always say “THEY’RE GONNA TAKE OUR GUNS!”*
*in this situation, absolutely*

[TheBerylknight]

This is so stupid. I literally cannot type that what this guy did was insane and deserving of a life sentence. They keep deleting it... lol

[JustRaiHere]

May he rot in jail and stay forever off the streets.

Im not killing anyone over pulling in to my driveway. However i am posting signs sometimes it gets ridiculous. When it happens all times of the day. Ive had two house holds on the block that for whatever reason would turnabout in my driveway for months. Until I requested them to stop.

One asked me what i suggest them do. My response was well since you do it daily to park in the same spot. How about coming from the direction you'd like to park. He looked dumb founded of course.

No i didn't explain to them my why. I just politely made the request. However the reason is that my fur baby is nuts by nature and barks and runs to the windows. Best guard dog ever 🤦🏾‍♀️. Its quite annoying and disruptive.

This could have been me! I’ve driven through so many small/rural NY towns and pulled into all kinds of weird places when I got lost without cell reception. I feel so sorry for this young lady and her family. They will never recover! People have lost their goddamned minds!

[rangsrangs]

Justice served great job Judge RIP to this young lady 🙏🏿

[carpediem]

I live in the Netherlands and we cannot imagine this, you accidentally use the wrong driveway, that often happens here, but to kill someone for that is unthinkable, this man is sick in his head, poor young woman, may she rest in peace even she didnt want to step out of this life of course

[nemono-won]

He deserves worse
Sometimes justice isnt going to jail, but what happens there...
