DAs Hate Self-Defense

From the Orlando Sentinel we get the following: Murder charge dropped against suspect in shooting outside Orlando nightclub

The Orange-Osceola State Attorney’s Office on Tuesday dropped a murder charge against a suspect who fatally shot a man outside a nightclub north of downtown Orlando earlier this year after admitting they could not prove it wasn’t in self-defense.

This incident took place back in February. He was in jail until the 2nd of March, when a judge ruled that the prosecutors didn't have the case they hoped for, and a bond was issued.

They finally got around to admitting that they had no case.

Now I don't know what happened, and I don't know what the evidence said, but the judge said something about self-defense when he approved the bail amount. It may just be that I have a deep distrust of public officials, but I don't think Justice was ever a question. Winning is what DAs care about.
