Best friend attempted murder.

[youngnewbie]

My best friend was charged with attempted murder on Saturday from an incident occuring almost two weeks ago. He had some personal property stolen from his apartment. And then later found out who stole it, he decided to go that persons place of residence and break in through a glass door he fired two shots into the cieling and then struck the guy and his girl with a broken golf club. Im not saying its from the steroids he was on. But he was definately much much more tense and aggressive since his cycle began. I do think it contributed to it. God i feel so sorry for him and his family he has a baby girl whos not even 1 yet. ANd to make things worse his girl and baby need a place to stay. So im letting them move in for a few weeks. I hate drama like this.

They'll reduce that and he may get off with as little as 30 days if he's clean. He's wrong though.

Jesus..dude needs to control his impulses.

That was definately assinine! I am sure he probably wishes he could turn back time. Maybe he will learn to think before acting after all this!!

Depends what state he's in In New Jersey there is no self defense I did two years in State Prison because someone tryed to stab me and than I beat his ass even reduced to Aggervated assault he could be looking at State time..But all depends on the laws aand the judge Or Jury if you bring it to trial but thats always fuckin ify because if you loose your getting the max

This is correct ^^^^^^^

No way they can make attempted murder charges stick with what you have described ... if he had shot the guy that would be another story .

Aggrivated assault at best .

They try'ed 2nd degree murder on me and i ended up with accessory to manslaughter .
Believe me my story is alot messier then your friends situation , plus the guy died .
I ended up doing 8 months

when my home was broken into and my family things were stolen I wanted to kill someone too.[I was not on at the time and hadn"t been for a couple years]when someone comes into your home uninvited you feel the need to defend it. I was alot younger then and someone talked some sense into me. your friend is in the wrong and I would"ve been to if I did something. I"m sorry for your friend and his family hopefully he can get a lesser charge

Insurance deductable is much cheaper than lawyer.... He should have thought about that before hand..

Exactly.

He wasnt upset about the things he could replace. He had some things from his fathers funeral stolen. And some other personal items that sure wouldnt account for much in a deductable. But as far as thinking before acting ya thats obvious. Was it worth missing out on his babies first birthday and all the other things he sacrificied not a chance. Im sure hes thinking about that right now. Still hes my homie do all i can for him and his family.
