Even In Florida, Prosecutors Hate Self-defense

Thankfully, they don't have the last word. Murder case dismissed against man accused in Orange Co. shooting

There is video evidence of what happened. That didn't stop the District Attorney from filing 2nd Degree Murder Charges.

Orange County, Florida is the area around Orlando. In fact, Orlando is the county seat.

Investigators say Rafael Villaverde and Dylan Jimenez got into a brief argument outside of the hotel.

Jimenez shot at Villaverde, who then returned fire. Jimenez ended up dying from his injuries.

And relatives of the dead guy, don't like self-defense. His brother also died, when cops showed up, and he refused to drop his firearm. So, yes, it is a tragedy for the family. That doesn't change the facts of the case.

At least the judge seems to understand what self-defense is.
