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 |
No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
