Actually, I was pointing out that the police determined that he was holding a gun on the other two and took him to jail as he was threatening their lives. They were not initially doing anything TO him... even though they were on his rented property.

So what the police did was SEE him with a gun... arrest him on a weapons charge and take him to jail.

What he did during the hearing when he was arraigned is a total mystery. If he had reason to have a gun and to threaten them with it, that should have been said at the hearing. So SOMEBODY made a determination that he was a threat based on lies from the two trespassers... and put HIM under a peace bond of sorts.

So how did YOU think he wound up in jail and being prosecuted. Simple... the police determined that he was threatening people with DEADLY FORCE for trespassing. THAT is why he was charged, arraigned and brought to trial.

The evidence was clear that he had reason to feel jeopardized by their presence, but that fear was NOT reason enough to use DEADLY FORCE... thus he was detained. The courts, however, have not worked on a timely basis for many years... and he had to spend far too much time under a cloud of guilt proffered by these two liars. Yes, the police could have done a better job, but if he had been a better citizen, he never would have pulled out a gun, received an injury from the bimbo trying to shoot him, nor would have have been arrested for threatening someone with deadly force... hence the assault charge. Sure he had extenuating circumstances. But not enough reasonable cause to pull a gun. He should have called the police and removed himself from the premises until they got there. He is not Superman.

THEY CAN BE CHARGED FOR LYING TO POLICE and for causing both his arrest and the later detainment... based on lies. Somehow I doubt that will ever happen. But suing them himself would only cost him more money. He should put them on an order of protection to prevent them from coming near him or his home again. And he should find a better class of friends.

Justice DELAYED is JUSTICE DENIED.
