MO: Robber shot three times

#1

Post by ELB »

Ne'er-do-well with gun enters a phone store in Maplewood (suburban St Louis) and tries to rob it. Solo clerk pulls his own gun and shoots robber three times, sending him to hospital. Cops say looks like self-defense to them.

Why do I call the robber 'ne'er-do-well"

Whelp:
Authorities say the robbery suspect has an extensive criminal history involving burglaries and robberies.
and wait for it...
The suspect was wearing an ankle bracelet for monitoring while he was out on bond after his arrest for allegedly robbing a Washington University student in February.

The whole reason we have Courts is so it is orderly and fair.

When they don’t do their job.

Well....

Maybe he should have been shot 4 times.
In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law to pursue a natural justice.

Who was "monitoring" him. Did that person get fired? Inquiring minds want to know.

Yeah, the government always exempts itself from its own rules.
