Not guilty in Taylor Lake shooting trial

The age of George Zimmerman continues.....

From Click2Houston:
HOUSTON - It took a Harris County Jury three hours Monday to decide a Seabrook area doctor who shot and killed his neighbor in May 2013 is not guilty of murder.
I've blogged on this before. I was able to hear the testimony of the shooter. I came away with two thoughts, 1) I felt the Assistant District Attorney's heart wasn't in this trial. Maybe he presented this case  to the grand jury with the recommendation to no bill it and then was surprised to see an indictment. It happens when a case is going to be hard to prove. 2) I cannot understand why the ADA did not hammer the shooter on why he escorted the intruder off the property, across the street, around the corner, and down the street instead of retreating to the safety of his home and letting the police handle it.

Much like why George Zimmerman didn't just stay in his car and let the police investigate the intruder. If both of these individuals had just let the police handle the situation two individuals would be alive today, but we have become a gun nut shoot first, take matters into your own hands, society and we must now suffer the consequences, more for some than for others. 

According to Click2Houston the family has filed a wrongful death suit.
