Obviously she didn't mean to kill the guy but it's too late now.
No details released yet on what caused the road rage to happen because of the investigation. Probably will not get any news for a couple of days.
Did this happen in your area?
I remember a lady who almost creamed me years ago. We got to a red light and I asked why she almost ran me over and she was laughing while saying "what do you expect on those death rockets".
Either way, she's a tough lady,,
The Shop
"looks like some old guy got pissed off that she was changing lanes, weaving through the traffic, and tried to ram her. She stopped in the left lane when traffic stopped, and the old guy pulled onto the left shoulder next to her and got out of his car. She got off the bike, and the old guy attacked her. He got her on the ground and was slamming her head (still wearing a helmet) into the pavement, then dragged her by the helmet to the concrete barrier at the median and was trying to punch her throat. Then she shot him. "
Again, from the limited info it sounds like the dead man initiated the physical violence. If they were simply in a heated argument when she fired on him, that could be an entirely different story.
Even if she was riding unsafe, "stunting", etc, it's pretty difficult to imagine any justification for him physically assaulting her. It'd be interesting to know if any prior conduct like that could affect her defense, though. For instance, if you see a driver of a car weaving in and out of traffic in a city area, and you induce a "fender bender" to get it stopped, would you still be guilty of some type of vehicular assault? I think the variables are huge.
I have no clue. I just know that in some States it's legal and that it's illegal in other's.
Pit Row
It he would a left home a few minutes earlier or later this day he'd still be a void with a splincter mussel around
I read an account of a person that shot and killed someone armed in his home. It was an over 2 year legal ordeal and he sounded like an emotional wreck. He struggled with wishing he hadn't done it but couldn't imagine what had happened if he didn't.
As for the women the sad part is that she'll never be the same again. Even if it was in self-defense she still took someone's life. That's something you can't ever prepare for unless you're some pshyco serial killer but that's not the norm.
I'm sure the man didn't know it was a girl at first if he just started assaulting her without questioning but as soon as it started I'm sure he could tell by the voice/screams that it wasn't another man. At that point if he continued (which he did), he's an asshole.
