Re: Fort Worth police shoot elderly man

If a grand jury chooses not to indict, does that mean the person is innocent? How about when they do indict? Is the person guilty?


Apparently the DA and grand jury didn't believe they had enough evidence to indict and convict since the other party is dead. Dead men can't testify. Two officers' story against a dead man's = officers win. Lends some credibility to the old adage, which I do not agree, "if you have to shoot someone, be sure to kill them".

I also believe this is a prime example of not saying anything to the cops or investigators until you have had a chance to talk to your attorney and have one present during any questioning.
