The jury deliberated for two days and asked for some court testimony to be read back before rendering the not guilty verdict.
The incident began when Scott confronted Cervini and two other teens stealing items from a neighbor’s car. Scott approached the teens with his gun drawn and ordered them to freeze and wait for the police to arrive.

Scott testified that he acted in self defense when Cervini allegedly charged at him saying that he was going to get Scott. Cervini, who was unarmed, was shot twice. He was 16 years and four months old when he died of his wounds.

We have to teach young kids challenging armed people will get you shot. They seem to have missed that class.
ReplyDeleteWhere is all the outrage over this incident? Scott is black and the victim is white. Exactly what I thought. And to think that the victim never assaulted the shooter.
ReplyDeleteI guess, this wont make the national news and I shouldn't expect our leaders to make any statements about it.
ReplyDeleteCome on, 7:02, if Odumbo had a son, he would not look like Cervini. So this shooting is unimportant to our esteemed president.
ReplyDelete627 There was a recent trial where a black dad was convicted after shooting teens on his porch who were threatening to attack his son in the middle of the night. I didn't see the NRA or any of you guys shouting about his case either. You also have the young lady in FL who got convicted for 20yrs for firing a shot. Where was her NRA/gun lobby defense fund? Looks like that sword cuts both ways huh.
