My World

There has been quite a buzz here in sweden about a case where a dad shot two boys in the chest with a shotgun, and one of the boys died. This was done when the boys plus a couple of their friends were got into the “dads” backyard and tried to vandalize. Which they had been done for years to the “dads” family, especially the son, who is a bit retarted (for a lack of other words), therefor quite easy to pick on i guess.

Anyhow, the dad and his family had been, for years, reporting these boys to the police, but no repercussions were made whatsoever since the boys already had heavier charges on them, and therefor weren’t alleged for the “minor” charges the family were putting on them. But since they were minors the earlier charges weren’t getting executed by anyone ether.

As you probably can hear this was a vicious cycle for the family, they kept being harassed by the boys, but nothing helped, didn’t matter who they contacted. So in the end the dad took matters into his own hands. Who wouldn’t?

Anyhow, in the first trial the dad was deemed mildly insane a the moment, and therefore not possible to charge with anything. This meaning that he went free. But now some lawyer wants to charge him again, just to try the actual act in court, to see how much self-defense is allowed to defend yourself and your closest.

So my question is, how can a lawyer talk this way? He is actually using a human being to do this, a person with a family and a life, it might destroy him!

I hope the dad gets freed, the boys had what was coming too them. Then you can start discussing what was the root of the problem, but that has nothing to do with the dad.
