Interesting development, Excaliber. Reinforces waiting a bit before making snap judgments, I reckon.

I was intrigued by the LEO's statement in the Chronicle article you sent us:

"It doesn't appear to be a case of murder," Oxspring said Friday. "We're looking at the degree of force used and whether it was appropriate..."

"In the process of being detained, it appears he may have been detained too hard," Oxspring said.

This appears to offer a chance for further speculation with respect to charges which could be brought.

Perhaps many of those not having a CHL could also use some instruction on the use of deadly force:

Reverting back to a thread in "Never Again," what might well have been the result here if one or more of the alleged assailants had been armed, CHL or not? Or is that two questions?
