Several hours of police testimony and surveillance video from the scene were all a part of Day 2 in a murder trial for Dallas Acoff on Tuesday in Ohio County. The defense claims the East Wheeling shootout was self-defense for the defendant, but prosecutors disagree. They’re trying to establish that Acoff, in fact, was not threatened, and they insinuated he could have left the Legion bar at any time. |

"They’re (persecuting attorneys) trying to establish that Acoff, in fact, was not threatened, and they insinuated he could have left the Legion bar at any time."
Since WV is a stand your ground state and persecutors are arguing he had a duty to retreat, the judge should sanction the prostitutors and declare a mistrial.
Why do we pay government attorneys to mislead the jury when the fact is two drug offenders got in a shooting match? Is it because lying is all they know how to do? |

TO REMEMBER |
| To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. — Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
