For the same reason that half the MAGAts in government that we have crimes + named suspects with mountains of evidence, and still no trial.
The same reason donld Trump incited a crowd of people, on camera, to go try and overthrow the government on a cold January morning 6 years ago, and despite people dying and people being murdered in the attempt, the person we have on camera starting it is now the goddamn president instead of in a cell or pine box.
We have no justice system. It only ever existed for whichever out group is being targeted. The rich and influential don’t exist in those groups and instead of trying to hide that like they used to, nowadays they just openly flaunt it.
No, I’m serious, please eli5… Where I’m from, murder + suspect = a trial…
I think the grand jury rule it an accidental discharge (because it’s Texas) and it’s how you kill somebody without being held accountable
That would still qualify as manslaughter.
If the prosecutor tries you for the wrong charge they’re usually not allowed to try again with a lesser charge
They can if this never got past the grand jury.
It’s extremely uncommon for them to try, but Trump is normalizing it
I’m a man and I’m not laughing.
You don’t have to say it, I was already leaving.
Took me too long but come back so I can tell you to get outta here.
That’s insane. Sure, an accidental discharge is an accident. Whatever.
Pointing the gun in the direction that an accidental discharge would kill somebody is a guilty act.
And having the gun loaded should be, too.
