The homeowner who fatally shot a 20-year-old University of South Carolina student who tried to enter the wrong home on the street he lived on Saturday morning will not face charges because the incident was deemed “a justifiable homicide” under state law, Columbia police announced Wednesday.
Police said the identity of the homeowner who fired the gunshot that killed Nicholas Donofrio shortly before 2 a.m. Saturday will not be released because the police department and the Fifth Circuit Solicitor’s Office determined his actions were justified under the state’s controversial “castle doctrine” law, which holds that people can act in self-defense towards “intruders and attackers without fear of prosecution or civil action for acting in defense of themselves and others.”
Phone the police, and then shout back asking what he wanted.
What’s the average police response time in your area? Is it less than 30 seconds? Because that’s how long it would be until dude is physically in your home.
wow, you’re so afraid of people
Literally from the article:
Well, maybe they handle mental illness better where you are (seriously, I bet they do). But here, we let them walk around untill they kill someone. So that is who you are protecting yourself from. And there are a lot of them just waiting to snap.
my husband is mentally ill and you have no idea how offensive you are.
There are all sorts of mentally ill people. I am referring to the ones who get arrested for violence and released over and over… not all mentally ill people.
I like your implication, here, that all mentally ill people are the same
In response to the comment that says mentally ill people walk around until they kill someone
