I have watched nearly every minute of this trial. It brings me to tears, often. My son (we'll call him Adam) was only 13, and he didn't kill anyone... but there's nothing like getting a call from the police (at work) telling you they are executing a "search warrant." For a firearm. On your home. Before noon. On a Wed.
Adam and 2 or 3 of his closest friends had found the gun belonging to one of the boys' brothers. They stole it... Adam, in his infinite wisdom, took the empty (I want to say clip, but that's wrong) magazine to school. He continued to prove how wise he was by showing that empty magazine to others. He was arrested and sent to Juvenile Hall.
I'm not saying that what Adam did was "OK" but in a just world, the kid who buried the actual handgun, in the dirt, at the bus stop, would get in a LOT more trouble than the kid who emptied the magazine into his underwear drawer before putting said magazine in his backpack for "show-and-tell" (it wasn't show-and-tell time, his sister - 2 yrs. later - would take a kitten to school in HER backpack for that, I digress)...
What followed was YEARS of absolute Hell... Every time I see Kyle's mom in the gallery, my eyes well up with tears and a part of my heart cries... You don't see your kid in Court, or visit your kid in jail without wishing you could switch places with him and make his pain go away...
It is my hope that the Jury is able to see "self-defense" for what it is. SELFfxckingDEFENSE. If they come back with the WRONG verdict, I PRAY the Judge will take matters into his own hands and issue the correct verdict. I also hope that Kyle sues every single idiot who defamed him, INCLUDING (but not limited to) #pResidentPoopyPants. How inappropriate is that skeeve?
It's also my hope that Gaige Grosskreutz (GaGross) is arrested for the role HE played that dreadful night... Impersonating a 1st Responder is a misdemeanor in WI, and that asshole hasn't had his Paramedic license in 4 yrs., & 8 mos. (it exp. 31 March 2017 - "Verify Credentials" at nremt.org)...
Next time – maybe – I'll tell you about the day "I" was arrested for Assault With a Deadly Weapon, Not a Firearm, and Spousal/Domestic Partner Abuse.
