I demand Daniel Adkins Jr get justice http://www.change.org/petitions/jus...m_source=share_petition&utm_term=friends_wall


On April 3, 2012 at about 7:37 p.m., Cordell and his girlfriend Ronisha arrived at the Taco Bell drive thru located on 7233 S. 51ST Avenue in Laveen Arizona. At approximately 7:39 p.m. Cordell finished placing his order and was asked by a Taco Bell employee to pull up to the front of the restaurant and wait while they prepared his order. As Cordell exited the drive thru, Cordell admits that he had to quickly apply his brakes to avoid running over Daniel, who enjoyed long walks with his yellow Labrador “Lady” by his side and on a leash. Ronisha stated that she was “facebooking” on her cell phone when she felt the Pontiac Grand Am GT they were in make an abrupt stop.

Cordell tells detectives that Daniel yelled to him “watch it as he moved from the front of Cordell’s vehicle. Upset from almost being hit by a car, Daniel swung his arm in the air, and according to an eye witness – at the same time Cordell fired his weapon once, striking Daniel in the heart. Both Cordell and Ronisha claim that Daniel was holding a 3 foot long bat “as big around as a water bottle.” Ronisha states that Daniel attempted to strike Cordell once with this baseball bat, but because “it was so big its size prevented it from entering his open driver’s window.” When detectives advised Ronisha that an extensive search of the crime scene revealed no baseball bat or any other potentially deadly weapon, Ronisha could not offer detectives any other explanation as to what she claims to have seen. Similarly, when told by detectives that an extensive search of the crime scene revealed no baseball bat or any other potentially deadly weapon Cordell stated that “it may have been the brown dog leash, or possibly Daniel’s empty hand.” However, witnesses tell detectives he was only holding Lady’s leash.

Cordell claims that he drew his .40 caliber Smith and Wesson handgun from where he carries it, “INSIDE HIS SWEAT PANTS ON HIS RIGHT HIP,” and manually loaded it by racking the slide mechanism with the barrel deliberately aimed towards Daniel. According to Cordell, he shot Daniel as he raised an arm as if to swing at him again, although Daniel never struck Cordell, the car, much less Ronisha. When asked by detectives if he thought that Adkins would have killed both of them if he (Cordell) had not shot Daniel, Cordell stated that “he did not think so.” He claims that he feared that “Adkins was trying to hurt him.”
 
Guy shoots an unarmed person. Got off under the Hold your Ground law, wasn't even arrested. At least Zimmerman had been attacked, the other guy didn't even lay a finger on his shooter. Why is it not any different? Guy shoots an unarmed person, essentially murder.
 
why dont u go protest about it OP like what people are doing in LA on the zimmerman trial
 
Okay....the shooter has been indicted and charged and is probably in custody.The process is underway so why are you demanding justice...what are you trying to pull here?

One case is a guy who shot somebody who was beating the crap out of him and the other is a guy who shot somebody for yelling and slapping his car. I'm not going to get into legal definitions again but murder is more than "guy shoots unarmed person." If I had to guess at this point, Jude will most likely be convicted but I don't have nearly enough information to feel certain about it. I could easily see this case ending in conviction on voluntary manslaughter though, based on Jude possibly thinking he was justified but being mistaken about Adkins having a weapon.

I think the word you're looking for is homicide. Homicide being one person intentionally killing another person. That being said there is justifiable homicide, ei the Zimmerman case and nonjustifiable homicide which what looks like is the case here. I don't know all the details but that's what it looks like at first glance.

Sent from my mind to my fingers to my phone to the MFK servers to you
 
Being unarmed is irrelevant. When being assualted you have the right to defend yourself by any means available to you. Whether someone is attacking someone or defending themselves is the only issue.

Hello; I read the Phoenix News Times story in the link you provided. The article states that Jude is being charged. He will likely go to trial or some other procedure and a legal judgement will follow. Is this the form of "justice" you want or the more personally defined "justice" so many seem to seek?
