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? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
