Controversial grand jury decision

[Professor Frink]

I'm not sure and every article I've read seems very ambiguous about this fact. My original interpretation was that the man was driving away and that the wife had exited the car at some point (since it said he was fleeing), but that does not seem to be specifically indicated. Even if the wife is still in the car though, why are you firing a gun into the car in which your wife is sitting (or in this case, laying?:blink:)?
That would certainly top even the episode where the host got stabbed...

I think it is legal in Texas to use deadly force to stop a fleeing felon, if that's the case it would make his case much easier to defend since he woundn't have to prove that the guy was an ongoing threat.

I don't think this is the case in most states.
