@@rheeryder2524 how about if that happened to your own family member that you were real close to, would 90 days be justice for your family unintentional or not?
Sadly, this could have been my story. My daughter and I were watching TV when we heard a loud bang. A few minutes later my neighbor knocked on my door to ask if I had heard anything. I stated yes. He apologized saying it was fireworks. After the TV show ended, I went to tuck my daughter into bed, I was shocked! There was a huge hole in the wall and ceiling. And my daughter’s bed was covered with debris. I immediately called the Police. Long story short, the guy claimed he was cleaning his rifle and it accidentally discharged. The cops spoke with him but didn’t arrest him because he had the rifle legally. I immediately moved out. Thank goodness, I allowed my daughter to stay up later than usual that night. My heart breaks for the parents.
I can't even imagine.... am so glad you and your family are safe. Just makes you think how we can be killed by someone any second no matter where we are..in school, mall, bank or even inside our home! This is crazy.
@@ayedrey I've been trying to tell people left and right on here. That negligent discharges happen people are like oh my God. His gun went off the kid is an idiot. Just like the police officer is and like cecil's neighbor is for not unloading the weapon before cleaning them.
One person was like he couldn't have done anything other than purposely shot. The young man I was like well if he did then we need to fucking hire him because he's got x ray vision and he's a superhero
He shot through the wall, did not report it or check if he hit anyone. Even someone who runs over a pedestrian has to give assistance by law. This is really a tragedy
@@mrs.lovely8527 unless we can find the leading red thread & solid prove like a confession or that phone call or any video at that time to prove it on court , it'll only be something that pain the ppl who love the victim
Not all people think that way unfortunately. My wife's mother was killed in front of her house in Oakland, CA when a Civic was speeding and ran her over. He never cared to stop. That person killed another human being and was never caught.
My gosh! I This guy should be doing life. No ands, if or buts... about it. who shoots through a wall? except someone who wanted to shoot wilfully!! A driver who kills gets murder charge. This is no different. I am sure drivers dont go out intending for an accident to happen. but still they pay the price. this one was looking for an accident by shooting through into another room. this is what it equates too. he shot into a room deliberately.
The kid who shot him has a relative who works in Law Enforcement.Y’all need to hire a private investigator to find out who that is and I guarantee you that you will see there is a conflict of interest.Keep in mind,that’s how dirty cops work.

@Florida Violets because it can cause death or great bodily harm, just because it’s not a law dosent mean you shouldn’t take it serious or favor the government, you should favor common sense.
This is absolutely tragic. His sentence is a disgrace to the legal system. My condolences on the loss of your son. The shooter should be charged with manslaughter. Period.💗
States, Counties and Cities in AMERICA 🇺🇲 are BROKE. They cannot afford to keep people in jail, feeding, clothing and rehabilitation g them. That money 💰💰 would rather be used to pay the salary of top officials, Their pension, paid vacations, free parking, breakfast and lunch at work etc etc
@@rlford10 yes definitely if I'm incompetent with a firearm, i would make sure i play around with it in the wilderness where the worse that can happen is it discharges and shoots my foot.
@Jordan Moses Ok, then don't own a gun. It comes with a huge responsibility. If you can't handle a gun without it accidentally going off, you have no business owning one. If you hurt or kill someone, you deserve the consequences of hard time in prison.
Chances of anyone being hit like that are slim to none. This is a very unfortunate incident, rarely ever happens when so many conditions must meet at the wrong place and time. It was his time to go. Angels of death were waiting
You don’t… if it were truly an accident. Absolute lack of training and zero awareness as to potential injuries or worse! His duty as the gun owner as well as being responsible for the negligent discharge, was to immediately call 911 and then account for the fired round, unless precluded from doing so, (locked door, unable to locate, etc) Also, what father doesn’t immediately advise their son to call 911, upon hearing the shot and realizing what happened?? What an irresponsible parent.
You see the problem is most States, counties and cities have their budget on the reds which explains why many streets are bad. In order to try to balance the budget they try to avoid keeping criminals in jail feeding, housing and clothing them. The money can instead be used to pay top dollar salary for top officials, fund their pension and insurance. Free breakfast and lunch at work. Why waste so much money on criminals. They can be locked up for Short period or be released
Laws don't have to change, they need to be enforced. Secondly, we need to make prison feel like prison. Stop incentivizing it. Make it a deterrent to go there. Stop giving "free this and free that". Stop reducing sentences for "good behavior" etc.
@@gamerjenkins2053 the prison system here is bad and is not designed to reintegrate you into society thats why we have a high rate of repeat offenders compared to other wester countries, also private prisions get good money for housing prisoners so crime does pay well the problem is deeper than just stop giving "free this and free that"
That's so sad. The boy was robbed of his future and the family was left devastated and the criminal will only get 90 days in prison. You do not need to be a judge or a lawyer to realize that this is total injustice.
you fire your gun and you don't even go to check if you hurt someone, he could saved him. And the worst is the change to 9 days as punishment. the justice system is a total joke...
That guy is mindless....his "didn't check the room" where his gun hit, is enough to jail him for atleast 20 years... .foolishness and wickedness of the highest order.....
I would advice the victims parent file a case of "negligence act " .....that guy is not humane and should be charged for 1st degree murder .. A humane individual would have checked his neighbour"s room, owing to the fact that he has a neighbour..

They lost their son and the other guy just got a slap on the wrist. They literally lock people up longer for drug charges. The system is so freaking pathetic, it makes me sick.
An accidental discharge of a firearm is not a criminal act. You don't understand justice, nor how laws work. People like you, who don't understand mens Rea, law, or justice, have no business passing judgement. If you ran the system, we would all be screwed, because you expect blood for simple human error.
@Dustin Miller In fairness...choices were made there. The young man in the story had no choice in the outcome of this but really the guy deserved to serve more time for not checking on his neighbor and apologizing immediately. That's just common sense.
It’s a case by case basis you can’t make a statement like yours because it’s just not true, the war on drugs Richard Nixon started in the 1980s started the harsh sentencing guidelines on a federal level but then you have state by state example California 3x your out law get 3 felonies and you get life, not all states are like this there are people from the 80s that did 25 years plus before they released tens of thousands of drug offenders that had extremely long sentences that did not fit the crime. Every president elects people that are in the United States Sentencing Commission and they have power fo change the sentencing guidelines you people elect these people into office but have no idea their political views, what they plan to do, if they are even competent to run as president unlike some people (that are still in office today somehow) you can’t just complain and expect thing to change on their own. Do you even understand how bad drugs were in the 1980s when they made the laws? They made them for a reason I’m Miami alone there were more than 5 killings A DAY, A DAY one city in one day 5 murders x 30 days a month 150 murders MINIMUM a month over 1800 a year but all of south Florida / Los Angeles / New York was like this you think the homeless and drug problem is bad now how about in the 80s when all you heard was machine gun fire, gangs were everywhere drugs were everywhere they were super cheap and 50x better than the garbage you get now 1979-1987 was just one big party everybody did something.

Very shady....those parents want justice for their son and it shows in their actions, composure and demeanor! They are wise enough to cut out language and to look composed verses not as they are seen to be WAY MORE CREDIBLE! My heart breaks for them. They lost a son to be proud of!
He didn't think to check where the bullet went . Then a mistake is made on his sentencing and he walks free ? He walked because he is black and victim is white !
Yeah I bet that modification was illegal if you want to know who's really oppressed in this Society look at the ones who get special treatment because if this had been a white man who shot a black guy through his wall he'd be facing 20 years in prison this guy's not even going to spend six months behind bars this is fucking ridiculous
This is outrageous! This is disturbing beyond my imagination. So sorry for the loss of this young man. Condolences to the family. As a parent my heart breaks for his parents.
Same exact thing happened in my neighborhood 10 years ago. A man was cleaning his gun when it went off an killed his next door neighbor. He was given 10 years. This guy gets 180 days?!?! Down to 90?!? Our justice system is a joke!!!!
I got a phone call like last August 10 from the medical examiners office. My son was found dead in his apartment. My heart breaks for that Mom, I know how she feels. Prayers for comfort and peace for the family and friends of that precious young man. My son was saved when he was 5. Now I look forward to seeing him in heaven.
Probably just dropped the mag and didn't clear the chamber. Some guns have a mag safety that prevents it from firing unless there's a mag inserted, some don't.
Modifying his gun, but his dad was on the phone at the same time. I can't imagine if I was the dad or the shooter and the gun went off that I or my dad would fail to check on the people in the apartment building

This happened to me about 2 years ago. I was out of town and my boyfriend got home from work to find a bullet had gone through our wall and into our ceiling. It would have hit me if I was working from home that day like I had been for the past couple of years. I went to the front office and filed a complaint once I got back. Apparently once they reached out to the person who shot into our apartment, they claimed they were cleaning their gun and accidentally shot a bullet. When I asked why they didn't report it immediately, they said they went to my door and knocked but no one answered so they left it as is. Like what if no one answered the door because we were dead????? Makes no sense! They got evicted but I still think about it to this day.
And you work your whole life, scraping and saving while raising your children, taking care you teach them right from wrong and then a bunch of young people get offended by the color orange and the 1st Amendment. Next thing you know Feelings have Installed a Regime that has in just 2 years, Collapsed the Border, Put the Burden of Paying for Illegals medical, Food, Housing on the States and as the banks are failing they tell those that have paid their way will have their credit scores lowered to allow the lower credit scores to have equal status, all the while the Banks begin to fail and the Democratic Communist Regime has begun Nationalizing the Banks and installing armed IRS agents to make sure you pay your fair share so those that haven't can have a share of yours. The only thing standing between your freedom of speech, right of private property and protection against illegal search and seizure from a tyrannical government is the 2nd Amendment. That's why they focus on it consistently. The Borders have collapsed. All Socialist, Marxist, Communist nations Fail and always end in death.
What a horrible thing to happen to this young man. I’m retired military so I consider him family. There are so many people who just shouldn’t have access to guns.
Even in the military, with extensive safety training that includes MORAL RESPONSIBILITY to use guns with only safety and protection in the training, there's still a small percentage of military who go through training who don't have the psychological capability to be around guns. Accident or not, the carelessness in cleaning a loaded gun is a MORAL LAPSE in reason. He wasn't responsible enough to care about the potential damage. He cared more how to convert the semi-automatic gun into fully automatic. He shouldn't have ever moved beyond squirt guns.
As a former military intelligence I’m baffled by your arrogance the us constitution states shall not be infringed freedom is scary get used to it. If people want to blame others blame the builder of the residence each wall should have bullet proof Kevlar inside if that’s how you feel. Yes the guy should never be cleaning and moding a loaded gun however it’s an accident not intentional. Just cause one guy is a moron or a insane crazy person doesn’t mean all guns must have laws. Same with just cause one guy is nut and votes for less doesn’t mean we should strip away ppls right to vote.

In any case, this is something that would definitely get overturned at a higher appellate court, because 90 days for negligent homicide is ridiculous and half of the bare minimum for Texas.

Negligent handling of a firearm resulted in this you don’t need a bullet in the chamber or a loaded mag when your cleaning, disassembling, or changing parts
@Florida Violets that’s just common sense but people that have never been around a gun would pick it up probably with their finger on the trigger and those people are why stuff like this happens
@floridaviolets9601true, but then those same idiots should be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. Many gun owners are responsible and know gun safety. So if you chose not to learn it and own one anyway, then this happens, time should be served.
My father had a glass gun rack in the den with the key in it. Drawers of bullets, cleaning stuff, vests, shells, but we never once thought about playing with a gun. Dad took us out and taught us, one lesson at a time, always supervised.
@Florida Violets bc criminals are going to the gun safety course lol OH doesn’t require a state class or anything guess what I still know basic gun safety skills😂 don’t need the state to hold your hand through life bub
This same tragedy happened to a woman where her neighbor was "cleaning" his gun without the safety on....the bastard was eventually charged with manslaughter. My deepest condolences to Austin's family and friends 😢....
Someone did pay deeply: the victim. We need federally mandated baseline requirements for skills and knowledge training and testing for ALL current and prospective gun owners.
Yet where’s the outrage and the protest like here in N.Y.? It’s incredible how people are destroying and disrupting the streets and subways over a homeless violent criminal. Yet we have a young man who was doing positive things with his life and there’s no protests. Why? Because the victim is white.
yes, those who keep pretending lenient gun laws aren't the problem. if the guy cleaning his gun was trained more thoroughly, there's a better chance he wouldn't have made a deadly mistake while cleaning. but hey "tHeY jUsT wAnNa TaKe OuR gUnS" right? 🤷🏽♂️

An investigation would still have to be done as i am sure it was here, and it would come out that there was strong motive and that would being in more inquiries....
If the roles had been reversed this would have never been the case. The charge should be what it is murder, or at least negligent homicide. If he can carelessly play with a loaded weapon while talking on the phone and discharge that weapon with a lethal shot going thru the wall into the neighboring apartment and never be responsible enough to check on his neighbor. No less than negligent homicide.

@@JoshyJosh I didn’t mean he “looked” like he would be successful, I meant it looked like he would be based on his education, military, and career commitments. Wasn’t referring to looks at all
He was on his phone with his dad...1) when you live in a complex like apartments condos townhomes and share a wall with someone else you shouldn't be cleaning or modifying your guns in that space 2) as he said he was on his phone with his dad did they both not think to check where the bullet went after he accidently fired his weapon? Did the Dad not ask him to check where it went? This is soooo unbelievable that he should NEVER have another firearm EVER again...condolences to the victim's family.
Modifying and cleaning a weapon in a residence is not anything special or unique as far as I am aware, it is common practice. The failures in this scenario are 1) Failure to clear the weapon 2) Failure to manually/visually check the chamber 3) Failure to follow up on a ND. TLDR: Negligence in following basic gun safety procedures due to improper training or a lapse in judgment.
@@sexychobit86 In my humble opinion, a test would be ineffective. Most individuals can understand the basic laws surrounding firearms when instructed, and operating a firearm does not require any special skillsets. The basic safety procedures with firearms such as how not to flag someone, proper unloading, etc. are more influenced by personal action/muscle memory gained through repetition which similar to a workplace, despite the proper rules/regulations on the books, have big difference between those who routinely follow the entire safety procedure and those who do not.
@@Flight042 So would you feel comfortable with someone getting behind the wheel of a car and they don't know how to operate the breaks? Or know how to turn on the headlights? At the very least they should be required to complete a set amount of hours of practice driving before they're given a license....which is what we do for driving. I mean apparently (as so many gun advocates like to claim) more people die in car crashes and yet we still do more in regards to following the regulations in place for obtaining a car and a driving license, than we do for guns, objects that are made to specifically kill things. Sure, we can't stop ALL people from being irresponsible, but at the very least we can try a little bit harder to lower the amount of people who shouldn't own a gun from doing so.
Also hes not a criminal. He probably owned the gun legally and didn't intentionally shoot the guy so I don't think he's a criminal... Now if his sentence has been reduced because of his relation to a police officer that's a conflict of interest and could potentially get someone in hot water, But cleaning a firearm that you own legally in your own home is not illegal. It's unfortunate that he's a fucking idiot and killed the guy through the wall but there was no premeditation it was a mistake supposedly so... What else do you want
He was fucking stupid enough to not unload the firearm before he was quote manipulating or modifying it or whatever bullshit he came up with, That's where he went wrong, It's not intrinsically criminal.
My prayers to Austin and his parents. The worst nightmare of a parent. It’s heartbreaking 💔 My best friend lost his son exactly the same way. Her son was sleeping when his roommate fire his gun while cleaning his gun. Until today I still wonder of this accident. I am always taking screenshots for my children to know if they are fine.
@@tjmarx This is a little larger issue than accidents happen. This is someone whose life was all before him being ripped away by someone old enough to know better that to carelessly be handling a weapon while talking on the phone. Furthermore he knew he fired through the wall and went on with his evening never checking on his neighbor. If he had checked perhaps the man could have survived. This is a case of negligent homicide.
Someone only sentenced 90 days over a death of a human? I can’t believe it..This is not justice! My condolences to the parents 😢

Sadly, this could have been my story. My daughter and I were watching TV when we heard a loud bang. A few minutes later my neighbor knocked on my door to ask if I had heard anything. I stated yes. He apologized saying it was fireworks. After the TV show ended, I went to tuck my daughter into bed, I was shocked! There was a huge hole in the wall and ceiling. And my daughter’s bed was covered with debris. I immediately called the Police. Long story short, the guy claimed he was cleaning his rifle and it accidentally discharged. The cops spoke with him but didn’t arrest him because he had the rifle legally. I immediately moved out. Thank goodness, I allowed my daughter to stay up later than usual that night. My heart breaks for the parents.
Same thing happened to me except my neighbor that negligently discharged his gun was a police officer
I'm glad your daughter is O.k. Are you going to move to get away from there? I hope both of you are safe, and have a great life.

You don’t… if it were truly an accident. Absolute lack of training and zero awareness as to potential injuries or worse!

What an irresponsible parent.
How is this not manslaughter? He did not call 911? He consealed the crime! The law has to change.
You see the problem is most States, counties and cities have their budget on the reds which explains why many streets are bad. In order to try to balance the budget they try to avoid keeping criminals in jail feeding, housing and clothing them. The money can instead be used to pay top dollar salary for top officials, fund their pension and insurance. Free breakfast and lunch at work. Why waste so much money on criminals. They can be locked up for Short period or be released
P.S so are you willing to pay alone the expenses of keeping criminals locked up? Government officials see it as a waste of money 💰💰

@Dustin Miller In fairness...choices were made there. The young man in the story had no choice in the outcome of this but really the guy deserved to serve more time for not checking on his neighbor and apologizing immediately. That's just common sense.
It’s a case by case basis you can’t make a statement like yours because it’s just not true, the war on drugs Richard Nixon started in the 1980s started the harsh sentencing guidelines on a federal level but then you have state by state example California 3x your out law get 3 felonies and you get life, not all states are like this there are people from the 80s that did 25 years plus before they released tens of thousands of drug offenders that had extremely long sentences that did not fit the crime. Every president elects people that are in the United States Sentencing Commission and they have power fo change the sentencing guidelines you people elect these people into office but have no idea their political views, what they plan to do, if they are even competent to run as president unlike some people (that are still in office today somehow) you can’t just complain and expect thing to change on their own. Do you even understand how bad drugs were in the 1980s when they made the laws? They made them for a reason I’m Miami alone there were more than 5 killings A DAY, A DAY one city in one day 5 murders x 30 days a month 150 murders MINIMUM a month over 1800 a year but all of south Florida / Los Angeles / New York was like this you think the homeless and drug problem is bad now how about in the 80s when all you heard was machine gun fire, gangs were everywhere drugs were everywhere they were super cheap and 50x better than the garbage you get now 1979-1987 was just one big party everybody did something.

The parents are so brave & emotionally strong giving this interview. I would be falling apart still to this day. I'm not so sure I could have given an interview at all. Sending my condolences to the family & friends of this beautiful young man.
If you have true faith and belief in the Lord Jesus Christ, you will find peace and comfort in Him, who will help any of us through any trial, pain and suffering we may endure in life. We are always being tested, challenged, and it is important that we believe in Jesus Christ, for he is the way, the truth and the life. No one can come before the Father except through Jesus.

I'm so very very sorry. I am deeply saddened by this tragic loss. 180 days in jail????? He fired that gun accidently and never went and knocked on the door and called the police saying please the shot went thru the wall and I may have hurt someone. How can you not think to do that????? It's wrong should be charged with full on murder because of this lack of action!!!!
If he would have immediately called the police, and admitted to an accidental discharge of his weapon, he probably wouldn’t have even gotten the 90 days. Then you’d be even more outraged.
No, only 90 days because someone halved the sentence randomly.
Let's go protest and a riot!!!!
90 days with bond at $3,000...
@grimmjow714 just doesn't seem right especially since he didn't call the police and demand they get in that apt to just make sure everything was ok.
Shocking ... the sentence is appalling. My condolences to the parent.
it was just an accident one life is ruined why ruin anymore lives.
When "pro lifers" promote MORE GUNS what more do u need to understand?

This is very sad. But it's a beautifully done piece. Great job by both parents explaining everything and extra kudos to Dad for framing the reality of the criminal justice system.
So basically, the parents are told "Too bad so sad get over it and get on with your lives he's dead move on" The system is often a nightmare for victims.
This is the crap that scares the crap out of me. A careless person with a gun shoots you from anywhere. You can be shot while sleeping, shopping, sitting in your house watching tv or taking a shower. Too many guns out there in the hands of people thinking they’re no big deal.

90 days!? This is outrageous. I’m so sick of people. They let the criminals out to terrorize the community. I feel for these parents.

He was in the military. It’s not Texas.
And Texas called the safest city lol 😂 horrible laws in that place. I will never go there
@@uliperezsatx , there's not much public information yet, but it still occurred in Hays County, Texas, and it doesn't look like any court-martial was involved, which would be the judging body for something like this if it was handled by the Army.
It seems some incompetence was involved in the sentence processing (or maybe intentional shielding, who knows?). In any case, this is something that would definitely get overturned at a higher appellate court, because 90 days for negligent homicide is ridiculous and half of the bare minimum for Texas. It's just terrible that the family has to go through the appeal process.

Isn't that the truth. 😥
Negligent handling of a firearm resulted in this you don’t need a bullet in the chamber or a loaded mag when your cleaning, disassembling, or changing parts
@Florida Violets that’s just common sense but people that have never been around a gun would pick it up probably with their finger on the trigger and those people are why stuff like this happens
@floridaviolets9601true, but then those same idiots should be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. Many gun owners are responsible and know gun safety. So if you chose not to learn it and own one anyway, then this happens, time should be served.
My father had a glass gun rack in the den with the key in it. Drawers of bullets, cleaning stuff, vests, shells, but we never once thought about playing with a gun. Dad took us out and taught us, one lesson at a time, always supervised.
@Florida Violets bc criminals are going to the gun safety course lol OH doesn’t require a state class or anything guess what I still know basic gun safety skills😂 don’t need the state to hold your hand through life bub
I’m so so sorry 😢

Someone did pay deeply: the victim.
We need federally mandated baseline requirements for skills and knowledge training and testing for ALL current and prospective gun owners.
Yet where’s the outrage and the protest like here in N.Y.? It’s incredible how people are destroying and disrupting the streets and subways over a homeless violent criminal. Yet we have a young man who was doing positive things with his life and there’s no protests. Why? Because the victim is white.
yes, those who keep pretending lenient gun laws aren't the problem. if the guy cleaning his gun was trained more thoroughly, there's a better chance he wouldn't have made a deadly mistake while cleaning. but hey "tHeY jUsT wAnNa TaKe OuR gUnS" right? 🤷🏽♂️

Very few (so-called) criminals actually possess the necessary resources required to stave off aggressively-minded Prosecutors. If you don't have the money for bail or a good defense Attorney, you're up the proverbial creek without a paddle.
So he shot through a wall...didn't check on the neighbor, continued talking on the phone? Went to bed? Dude 90 days should be how long you should be in jail waiting on your REAL sentence.

Time to start requiring gun owners to have liability insurance. There should be no accidental discharge with a responsible gun owner.
Good solution, and more mental evaluations for those trying to purchase high caliber weapons like rifles.
Why not use that as a defense if you want to kill your dorm mate across the hall. This is insane.
An investigation would still have to be done as i am sure it was here, and it would come out that there was strong motive and that would being in more inquiries....
90 days for murder?! Wow that sounds like some kind of privilege....
Hello Tom, how are you doing today.
If the roles had been reversed this would have never been the case. The charge should be what it is murder, or at least negligent homicide. If he can carelessly play with a loaded weapon while talking on the phone and discharge that weapon with a lethal shot going thru the wall into the neighboring apartment and never be responsible enough to check on his neighbor. No less than negligent homicide.
God bless these parents. I know how hurt you are as I lost my son 18 years ago. May God give you strength and peace. I just can't believe all he got was 90 days. God bless you now and always. 🙏 💖 🌹
My condolences to your entire family and friends for this horrible loss 🌹💐 I pray that your son is resting in peace, And May God comfort you and all effected during this very difficult time.
Unpopular opinion: Justice is not about revenge. It won't bring back their son. It's better they focus on their grief and coping with it internally. Forgiveness heals more. The guy was appropriately charged with manslaughter. It was not premeditated murder.
Justice for Palestina! ♡
That is so sad. He had a whole life ahead of him, looked like he was going to be quite successful. Heartbreaking
You can see future success by the way a person looks? Didn't know that was a thing...
@@JoshyJosh I didn’t mean he “looked” like he would be successful, I meant it looked like he would be based on his education, military, and career commitments. Wasn’t referring to looks at all
He was on his phone with his dad...1) when you live in a complex like apartments condos townhomes and share a wall with someone else you shouldn't be cleaning or modifying your guns in that space 2) as he said he was on his phone with his dad did they both not think to check where the bullet went after he accidently fired his weapon? Did the Dad not ask him to check where it went? This is soooo unbelievable that he should NEVER have another firearm EVER again...condolences to the victim's family.
Yes but it's Texas so I'm sure they'll allow him whatever guns he wants. Hell, the way they're rolling back laws, maybe a machine gun.
Yea, it's almost as if maybe we could make sure people have a basic training test before they're able to get a gun.
Modifying and cleaning a weapon in a residence is not anything special or unique as far as I am aware, it is common practice. The failures in this scenario are 1) Failure to clear the weapon 2) Failure to manually/visually check the chamber 3) Failure to follow up on a ND.
TLDR: Negligence in following basic gun safety procedures due to improper training or a lapse in judgment.
@@sexychobit86 In my humble opinion, a test would be ineffective. Most individuals can understand the basic laws surrounding firearms when instructed, and operating a firearm does not require any special skillsets. The basic safety procedures with firearms such as how not to flag someone, proper unloading, etc. are more influenced by personal action/muscle memory gained through repetition which similar to a workplace, despite the proper rules/regulations on the books, have big difference between those who routinely follow the entire safety procedure and those who do not.
@@Flight042 So would you feel comfortable with someone getting behind the wheel of a car and they don't know how to operate the breaks? Or know how to turn on the headlights? At the very least they should be required to complete a set amount of hours of practice driving before they're given a license....which is what we do for driving. I mean apparently (as so many gun advocates like to claim) more people die in car crashes and yet we still do more in regards to following the regulations in place for obtaining a car and a driving license, than we do for guns, objects that are made to specifically kill things.
Sure, we can't stop ALL people from being irresponsible, but at the very least we can try a little bit harder to lower the amount of people who shouldn't own a gun from doing so.
Criminals get everything and they act like the victim is the criminal. So unfair.
That is what a criminal is
The NRA gets everything.. they brainwash u to get MORE GUNS, u get MORE guns.... U CRY.... while the NRA makes MORE bank! TOTS & PEARS.
When you’re related to a cop of course it gets swept under the rug. This perpetrator is related to a cop
Also hes not a criminal. He probably owned the gun legally and didn't intentionally shoot the guy so I don't think he's a criminal... Now if his sentence has been reduced because of his relation to a police officer that's a conflict of interest and could potentially get someone in hot water, But cleaning a firearm that you own legally in your own home is not illegal. It's unfortunate that he's a fucking idiot and killed the guy through the wall but there was no premeditation it was a mistake supposedly so... What else do you want
He was fucking stupid enough to not unload the firearm before he was quote manipulating or modifying it or whatever bullshit he came up with, That's where he went wrong, It's not intrinsically criminal.
Outrageous! A life is lost and the responsible person spends only 90 days in jail?!!!!

Furthermore he knew he fired through the wall and went on with his evening never checking on his neighbor. If he had checked perhaps the man could have survived. This is a case of negligent homicide.
