What was once a possible murder case in Oconto County is now being described as self defense.
After 11 days in jail, the Oconto County district attorney decided to release a 17-year-old boy Wednesday. But district attorney Edward Burke says the teen could still face charges for the fight that killed 36-year-old Jason Fotopoulos.
FOX 11 is not naming the teen because he is not facing charges right now.
In a statement Thursday afternoon, district attorney Edward Burke said an investigation concluded the teen was acting in self defense when he punched and killed Fotopoulos. |

| The investigation concluded that he acted in self defense, but we still might charge him, because, hey, we're persecuting attorneys, ruining lives is what we do for a living... |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
