Dooley guilty of manslaughter, blames racism for verdict | TBO.com
This is in the same general region as the Zimmerman case.
The case:
Man sees someone (age 41) messing around on newly surfaced tennis or basketball court. Older black man (now age 71) sees this, tells him to stop. Argument breaks out. Old buy pulls out gun. Struggle over gun. Man says the young guy was chocking him. Shoots him. He dies. Found guilty of manslaughter, illegally demonstrating a weapon and illegally having the gun with him.
Trevor Dooley's attorney portrayed him Wednesday as a 69-year-old man with fused discs in his neck who feared for his life when set upon by his 41-year-old neighbor, six inches taller and 70 pounds heavier. The victim was ex military, weighed 250 pounds and was 6' 5".
That verdict has to make Zimmerman and O'Mara uncomfortable.
