Don’t Bring A Knife To A Gun Fight Posted November 14th, 2006 by Wheeler Back in August, four men entered the home of Ricky Gross - a father of seven and a former sailor in the US Navy - and shot him a total of fourteen times, twelve of them in the back. Two other people witnessed the event and both say that Gross was unarmed and had not threatened anyone. Gross died from the injuries. Nevertheless, District Attorney David Barber announced yesterday that there would be no criminal charges against the four assailants. The coroner, who was not at the scene, said there was a knife on the floor near Gross’s dead body. An autopsy revealed that Gross was drunk when he was killed. The assailants say Gross threatened them. Clearly, then, this was a case of self defense and there is no need to arrest anyone or to submit the case to a grand jury. Not so clear? Oh yeah, the assailants were cops. My previous comments on this case are here, and here. |
