To answer Wildroses question why a grand jury?
To me the area is mixed white and Hispanic, but the DA is white and the shooter is white. The dead man is Hispanic.
This keeps it all above board and maybe doesn’t upset half his constituents.
A DA can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich, but they can also get them to not indict someone just as easy.
His comments afterwards pretty much tell it all.

Re: Texan Jailed After Defensive Gun Use
Wow that is some story.
So it was the Sheriff, not the DA that arrested him and put him in jail for 55 days. It was the judge who decided on bail of $500,000 for a self defense shooting.
Someone fires 11 times at you with with semi automatic rifles and you return fire with a single shot from .22 caliber bolt action rifle and that is the only round you have with you, the one in the chamber and your charged with murder. Please.
Only negative for our sharpshooter here is he left the scene, rather than calling 911 rendering aid and waiting for the Sheriff.
Good job DA and Grand Jury.
