Yes
No
other


Dont know who is familiar with the case but here are all the videos so far, ill be posting pictures and articles and other things

so far today 2/10/14 I think he is guilty

for me it comes down to these things

he said he saw a gun yet there no corroborating evidence of this, It wasn't found, no wittiness saw one.

if there was one pointed at him and the cars were side by side, why would a person once they see a shot gun, reach to the glove box knowing the gun is not ready to shoot, open it, load the chamber, then place his arms out the window two hands to shoot.? im no gun expert but my guess is a shot gun could clear the interior of the car with one shot, why waste all that time, seems like there was no fear or panic but thats just my opinion

then after Dunn shoots at the SUV 10 times (1 misses) n clusters of 3, 4, 3 while the SUV was stationary (3) moving to leave (4), moving stopped during turn (3) he leaves the scene, drives 40 mins to his hotel, takes out the dog, eats, watches a movie, goes to sleep, wakes up and drives 2.5 hours home and doesnt call police

those things along with all the evidence and testimony so far make me think his goose is cooked

Dunn had Nunchucks and a silencer in his car?
 
Oh **** I hope Excon doesn't see this thread. I started one about it a while back, because this is in my news market. I remember when it happened. But Excon almost blew an aneyurism (sp).
 
But FWIW, I think he's guilty as hell. He was drunk, coming back from a wedding. His racist, hate-filled letters from jail have been released to the media, and they are very telling.
 
From what I've seen and heard, my appraisal is that he committed homicide, left the scene and hoped he got away with it; then when he was caught he resorted to spurious and largely unsupported claims of self-defense that don't add up.


Looks like Murder 2 from where I sit; voluntary manslaughter at the least. Unless there's some information I am lacking.
 
More coming out that makes him look guilty -- 10 shots fired into the car, no weapons found in the Durango. Also, it was testified that Davis was found in the backseat in a defensive position, clearly not trying to climb out of a car to go after Dunn.

i agree and that reminds me

another thing that rubs me wrong

the supposed shot gun that was never found and nobody ever saw didn't come up until the second time police questioned him

just "seems" very shady

wait for iiiiiit.....wait for iiiiit
 
From what I've read about the case, unless the DA completely throws the case like Casey Anthony/OJ type of a throw or they find a shotgun or witnesses to corroborate Dunn's story it looks like he will not be getting away with this.

Ditto for me. Even though Murder 1 is a permissable charge under Florida Law, I dont think it should apply in this case. Dunn did not have a preconceived intent to murder the victim.

Dunn, was however, willing to commit murder if "disrepected" under certain circumstances (boozed up, black music, his order refused and then being argued with and beyond the pale... Dunn's chick might of witnessed the "disrepect".

Right off the bat you make it personal and bait. Weird.
and if anybody had an aneurism it was you, as further exemplified by this posting of your.

The same for you two as well, there is no need to make things personal and bait.

Hang on, I think COPS is on tv right now.
 
He's absolutely guilty of murder. In Florida, however, that doesn't mean much.

I know. When Casey Anthony can walk, and George Zimmerman can walk, and you have people in Florida serving life sentences for non-violent marijuana crimes? Yeah, nothing surprises me in Florida. Nothing.

Holy cow, dood. Learn how to take a joke. All that anger isn't healthy for you.

This is what I think. None of the evidence so far leads me to believe it was a justified self-defense shooting. No one else saw or was able to find the shotgun he said he saw in the teens' car. And instead of firing at one attacker, he was just firing randomly into the car, and continued to do so after the teens tried to leave. And the fact that he was heard yelling "You can't talk to me like that" just before he opened fire leads me to believe the shooting was in anger, not in fear for his life.
 
and George Zimmerman can walk

I'm not sure why people keep bringing Zimmerman up in relation to this case. They're completely different. Zimmerman was an idiot that night, but he had a legitimate claim to self-defense under Florida law. Nothing in this case so far indicates that this guy did.

Oh, I don't know - travesty of justice, shooting of an unarmed teenager, crazy white (well, half white) guy.

There are similarities. Plus, Florida, so you know...

Not exactly the same, but there are similarities.

Plus, if you'll read my thread entirely, it wasn't comparing Zimmerman to this case. It was talking about former travesties of justice in Florida - not comparing the two.

- Half drunk
- Sees blacks and being supportive of blacks as a problem coupled with the victims' ethnicity.
- The number of shots fired, complete spraying of the entire cabin of the SUV from front to back with bullets and continuing to shoot after the vehicle was fleeing to safety indicates he was trying to kill everyone in the SUV, not just the one kid who argued with him.
- Fled the scene before police arrived.
- Never called police.
- Supposed shotgun he says he saw has never found nor seen by anybody else coupled with motive to make the story up. I'm of the opinion shotguns are not easy to hide.

Guilty

I don't believe it was premeditated however. Road rage incident that ended with tragedy.

Neither of those things should lead to his guilt or innocence but, from what I know of this trial, it appears he is guilty.

Duh. I know this. But the above, coupled with so much more, should lead to his guilt.
 
Dunn is starting to testify in court. 10:27am

Manslaughter. The word you're looking for is manslaughter.

If they go for Murder 2, they won't get it. Manslaughter is bulletproof though...no pun intended.
