In my opinion,  it’s a GREAT thing that criminals like this don’t immediately call for a lawyer. Go ahead and dig yourself into a worse situation  so you can be justifiably arrested -  you know?

The problem, the lawyer would try and throw a smokescreen around a jury to protect a guy whom is clearly guilty.

GUYS NO ONE WHOS BEEN UNDER ARREST WOULD MAKE THIS DUMB COMMENT. I swear its like you guys think they’re like, “ok love bug, lawyer will be here in ten. Here’s a crumpet while you wait.”
Now this guy had the right to leave. He’s an idiot. He should have left, if nothing else. Bc he wasn’t under arrest...
But generally speaking...
If you dont have a lawyer on retainer (WHO DOES? What are you tony Montana?) you have to wait and be transferred to county UNLESS you can get someone to send a paid lawyer over. LAWYERS DONT KNOW OR CARE ABOUT YOU. If you get arrested on Friday night, do you think theyre coming in on Saturday morning LOL? if you dont have someone to send them money, do you think they’re coming? NO. And the public defenders, again, are at county, at the courthouse... meaning you have to voluntarily wait to be transferred. When innocent, thats even harder, but when guilty its even harder bc you already fear staying in jail...
When youre under arrest, all you want to do is leave, and they fuck with you BIG TIME.

You guys are thinking of interrogation. If youre being interrogated, turn on your heel and leave and come back with a lawyer, but if youre under arrest, unless youre like a murderer and think you cn get off with a lawyer... no one waits for a lawyer. Like I’m staying in jail three days to wait for an interrogation for a minor possession charge or something? Never. You THINK you would do that bc youre calm in your bed. Talk to me after you’ve been strip searched and handcuffed to a bench for three hours. Anyone would crack before the lawyer got there. Also, not in this case, but 8/10 times when you get arrested youre drunk or high, people forget that too. I’m talking about small crimes people in this common section are more likely to be accused of.
This guy is so convinced the cops will take his side that hes falling for all the tricks they play on him. He didnt wait for a lawyer bc he thought he’d be home for supper. And thats what everyone thinks. It’s very hard to willingly stay in jail longer to wait for a lawyer, even if you’d likely end up there anyway....

All I’m saying is, if you’ve been under arrest.... you wouldnt say it. Not even if you HAD waited for a lawyer, bc you’d understand.

It's people like him who have enough balls to think there's no way they could be proved wrong. Narcissistic, aggressive, chip on their shoulder people.

@EliasDanger I have to disagree. I know a lot of people from a lot of different walks, and I've seen very intelligent people do very stupid things. Smart people get desperate, and then they commit crimes because they feel they have no other option and sometimes they didn't. No one is going to help them, they have kids to feed, they are carrying the weight of the world. In this case and in many a stupid man did something stupid and spoke before thinking. Because that's what stupid people do. They're too dumb to fathom all of the potential consequences of what they are saying or doing. <br>Just don't assume all criminals are stupid is all 😊 I have never been arrested but I've watched a lot of good people do terrible things in my life and it just takes a little thought and empathy to realize why. We are all a few missed meals or a few losses away from being the people we judge.

Harper Mac dude, she was covering up and lying for something and her car smelled like death and she led the detectives on wild goose chases...I think there was a bunch of other stuff too. It was obvious. I woulda convicted her easy

@EliasDanger We'll agree to disagree.Ur right she talked alot of BS but never did incriminate herself Argue this case w  good attorneys Sad to say they got it right Chaney Mason's handiwork Jose didn't have the experience Just the hustle to get great legal minds behind him Everybody in the world knows she's quilty But the law worked for her Reasonable doubt. Personally I'd rather one walk than an innocent person be incarcerated

I know right U would think  ppl would have enough sense to exercise their 5th amendment privilege IMO why Casey Anthony walked herself out from facing the death penalty.

@EliasDanger I can confirm there are no smart people in prison. Jesus, how could this nonsense comment attract 300 likes?

yeah, INNOCENT people should get a lawyer. guilty people should confess.

They do not read your rights to you during basic questioning. However, they do for an interrogation.
Correct me if I am wrong, but that is what I have gathered from the countless hours of crime videos that I have watched.😅
It was not something that I knew before and I doubt many others know it either.
(Besides us crime addicts.)🤣

The only time I was booked was because I plead the fifth when four other folks that I was with sang like birds... I was a college freshman busted by campus police for a super petty weed and simple paraphernalia possession charge (less than a g, and a $5 glass pipe found in a backpack within arms reach of my person’s inside the driver’s vehicle ((I was sitting in the seat directly behind the driver)).

The four folks who gabbed got tickets, a proper court date, and released from the scene back to their dorms. Cop said that I gave him a hard time simply by stating that “I don’t speak to police”, and that he took me to jail that night on account of my disrespect, (aka not incriminating myself by pleading the 5th)...

Matter of fact, I was very respectful and did nothing but comply to his orders (other than when he was asking me any incriminating questions which were politely refused).

Needless to say, I spent 8 hours in an East Knox holding cell between some dude with face tattoos who got caught trafficking a shit-ton o’ cocaine from Atlanta up north and another kid about my age who got called in for beatin’  his lady. They were nice in a “oh I fucked up tonight” kinda way. The coke dude was little wide-eyed and the lady-beater was a charismatic sketchy lowlife, which was disturbing... I trusted neither, and for the eight hours I was with them, I was on edge... but for that moment they were both still nice to a fellow accused criminal.

After 8 hours, I was released on my on recognizance and had a court date which ended in a plea deal. No probation or anything crazy. Shit got expunged after a year. Never had been in trouble before and since then...

Oh and little fun tie bit, the cops started to make fun of me when they emptied my backpack at the station and found my choir book for men’s chorale. Fml.

Well it wouldn't be as interesting of an analysis of they asked for a lawyer straight up.

@George Taylor I agree 100% but I can tell you that at least on smaller cases, it can be hard to resist when it's something like DUI or drug possession and you know they have you but the best advice is "make them work for it" meaning don't consent to FST's (in PA, YMMV), don't consent to car searches, don't consent to blood draws. the problem is, I know around here at least that if you cooperate and just give in to everything and give them all the evidence they need, they often let you go home/get picked up by someone and at 2am on a Friday evening (which could mean several days before you see a judge) that just seems like such a better option than making the cops work for it because if they do then they are almost always going to book you jnto jail and tack on every charge possible before. cooperating with an officer for small misdemeanor infractions does actually get you cut some slack with the cops sometimes with the charges. and then if you cant afford a private attorney, its a toss up if you're going to get a PD who is willing to go through all tje discovery and try to find loopholes to get evidence dismissed and if the cops did eberhthjng right, constitutionally, you dont get off and the cop and rhe prosecutor might be less lenient with your plea deal. its fucked up and not how the law is supposed to work but it haopens every day, all the time and its really easy to talk about standing up for your rights and can be much harder to do the right thjng in the actual moment.

now, a murder charge or any felony really? or really any time they bring you into an interrogation room, i would hope that i have seen so many cases of false confessions and/or self incrimination that the only phrase out of my mouth would be "get me a lawyer now please" but I can see why and how people get themselves into these situations even though they were JUST reminded of their rights. my experience is just with roadside misdemeanor drug offense arrests. I csnt imagine how much more stressful these situations are, especially wirh seasoned detectives using the Reid method

That's how I feel when watching First 48. Half of those cases would be cold if people would just shut the fuck up and ask for a lawyer.

@Tom Britton probably right, but with proper education and advice most would realize a lawyer would prevent much interrogation from happening. a lawyer will provide the angle the police are taking before you can sabotage it intentionally or unintentionally. we are the first to look at the guy in NCIS who says, "i want my lawyer" as a guilty guy with everything to hide, rather than a man being snatched up by the legal system on circumstantial evidence.

VinnieThePuuh individual psychological structures can result in a person doing evil things, knowing how evil those things are and enjoying them thus making that person evil. The psychological structures don’t force someone to commit evil acts. It’s their own evil choices. We aren’t just bags of meat that do what our paychological structures and circumstances dictate. If that was the case, our whole justice system is misguided. Punishment for crimes doesn’t make sense, as they are no ones fault.

@EliasDanger And how much Eviljuice do you need to drink to become a murderer??

(My point is: Circumstances, individual psychological structures  and socialisation can make literally everyone a killer.)

Occasionally they say at the end of the video they say "I think I need a lawyer". Cops are thinking dude you needed a lawyer an hour ago it's too late now.

@EliasDanger No use making a logical statement in response to a joke. :)

@EliasDanger No use making a logical statement in response to a joke. :)

@Hostile At Heart you cant blame him for trying, you could only blame the jury for believing it or the prosecutor for not doing a good job of pointing out how ridiculous of an argument that is.

Listening to his defense attorney rambling about the "wrong colors" and "standard definition" in the CCTV footage makes me want to disagree with you ;) :D

@Jo Letty they are doing their job. over 90% take a plea deal in that their lawyer convinces them to just plead guilty. its on prosecutors to convince the jury in other cases. if they cant do that, they must go free. its not always perfect, in fact i would say the bigger problem is innocent people being convinced to plead guilty cuz they are afraid they will lose the case and get a harsher sentence.

Okay, I agree, but this advice should NOT be impressed on the guilty criminals. Too many get off Scott free for horrible, horrible Crimes! With so many laws protecting the wrongdoers and the lenient punisment they hand out, now, that is a crime!!! Too many innocent victims go without justice being done them because lawyers defend them right and left. 🤔😐😤😒

honestly a lawyer could get u out of alot of shit weather u are in the right or in the wrong

@George Taylor True. And the thing is, laws are constantly changing, being revised, etc., common people cannot keep up with the changes because they are not in the field dealing with them every day of their lives. Our justice system right now is so complicated, even lawyers have a tough time keeping up! You re right, let the lawyers do the job for you, you'll be glad you did. 🙄

I think most people's first reaction is "I want to get out of here ASAP, a lawyer is just going to make this drag on and on."<br>But never say a word to law enforcement until you've spoken to a lawyer/solicitor no matter how long it takes or what you have or haven't done.

the defense lawyer in this video helps put that in to perspective too. when you feel like a murderer, just have a lawyer prove you aren't!

Yeah this guy is clearly guilty but how can't anyone think of calling a lawyer first? Never talk to the police without a lawyer.

@EliasDanger Not true. There are many cops, judges and even lawyers themselves who commit horrible crimes like murder and rape. The serial killer with the highest body count in history is a doctor in the UK called Harold Shipman. He murdered at least 218 people. You have to be reasonably smart to be a doctor.

Kinda funny though isn't it? Like there's an entire field of experts who spend years if not decades studying and practicing law precisely for situations like this. They're such a fundamentally important profession in our country that 1) They can't even ask you any questions until they've told you that you have a right to a lawyer, and 2) THEY'LL FUCKING GIVE YOU ONE FOR FREE IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD IT. We go out of our way to show people how important lawyers are...

And yet time and time again these guilty people waive their right to a lawyer thinking they're actually smart, or cunning enough to save their own ass better than an ass-saving expert could lol 🤦♂. This guy is what happens when you're so ignorant about a subject that you don't even realize that you're totally out of your depth. Let the experts work in their areas of expertise people. I promise you, you aren't qualified to do their job.

@David S well, i think the difference is, if youre smart enough to ask for a lawyer, you're also smart enough not to do horrible crimes.

“Paramedics arrived within 19 minutes”

I’m sorry but that’s way too long. You’d be annoyed if they took that long with a broken leg let alone a bullet in the chest. Poor guy. No one deserves to go out like that.

1. scene must be safe and cops have people specifically trained in EMS to go in with the team clearing the scene to start any immediate care. By the looks of the background and scene the area it happened in can be a very remote area. They try to keep emergency services within a few minutes of any given resident but when you have a small town in large (by area) states theres people that live 30+ minutes away from anything but trees and wild life so these little gas stations and mini marts open to be closer to them but not near the center of town where the emergency services are. Those two factors come into play. The you add traffic and weather

The difference is that the defendant went there looking for trouble. He started and intense argument with a woman who was minding her business, of course her partner is going to come out and tell the guy to get lost.
Saying "violence begets violence" in a situation like this is incredibly tone deaf.

Scene has to be secured by law enforcement before ems will respond in, so that adds time to the response. Some rural areas do have lengthy response times, where I live in Alaska the outlying areas can take 30 minutes

The whole thing could’ve been avoided if that bastard would’ve mind his own beeswax. That would’ve been a Karen in a female version.

Right because no one else in the city needed an ambulance, heavy traffic does slow things down, some people won't even move for one, maybe it was coming from cross town. I had my horse roll on me knocking me out, took a good 10 minutes for the ambulance to arrive and the hospital is a mere 15 minute walk. I see what you are implying and its disgusting.

here in Australia if a paramedic took that long the government would have an inquest or royal commission into it ...Just not acceptable.

Nex Wex 3 You wouldn’t protect your woman from a man confronting her while she sits in the car? My man would, no questions asked. He could see there was an altercation going on.

I once got crucified, THREE WHOLE DAYS later god brought me back from the dead, fyi, death SUCKS ASS. 19 minutes is far too long.

@A J I totally get you. My town's paramedic association only has only 2 ambulances and they often have to operate in the nearby towns too because some towns don't have them at all, or they have even smaller associations with maybe even only one ambulance, and if more than 1 case happens, they are in trouble and need to call for backup from other places.

I have to be honest, I thought the video said "90 minutes" and I was like "90 MINUTES???" Now that I've read your comment, I can understand a little better.  I'm extremely sorry for the guy, no doubt at all, but I don't think there was malicious intent with arriving 19 minutes later. The causes can be many, like the fact that they have few ambulances and/or operators, or the station was far from the place where it happened and there was a lot of traffic. I don't know, honestly. I pray for the poor man who died and for his family....

(Edit: I'm Italian, that's why I didn't understand the right thing at first. And my brother is a volunteer paramedic here in Italy, so I kinda know how it works arous here. So before people start blaming paramedics, they should ask themselves "do I donate to their associations so that they can have enough and adequate material to do their job? (If the the association is independent from the govt) and would i be willing to be a volunteer like them, doing this FOR FREE, putting my own life on the line?" Again, I'm not American and I don't know how it works over there, nor I know if your paramedics are volunteers like here in Italy, but if they are, AT LEAST show some respect for them. Show it even if they are paid. They're doing an important job AND trying to get their own skins home in the meanwhile. Try to be more understanding, they didn't get on the site 2 hours later.)

Well u don’t know the whole story, there might be 100 cases going on

Well u don’t know the whole story, there might be 100 cases going on

@A J Well somethings gotta give...maybe I’m wrong for blaming y’all if y’all have to wait on police to give y’all the “go” but it is what it is...and 19 minutes seems like too long of a time regardless of whose to blame so forgive me not knowing protocol...it still sucks, I said what I said...but I know better now

@sweet paulaina it really isn’t. If someone there kept pressure on the wound, depending on where he was shot, to keep him from bleeding out, it might’ve had a different outcome. 20 minutes to arrive on scene after a shooting is standard to make sure the area is safe for the medics and EMTs to enter. And you have to take into account traffic on the way there. So, say you’re held up 10 minutes from traffic, even with lights and sirens. Then you still have to make sure you’re not walking into something potentially dangerous. Our first priority is making sure we go home at the end of the day. I don’t care what people have to say about that, but we are not law enforcement.

english is not my first language so i umderstood 90 minutes instead of 19 and i thought that was a crazy amount of time, but now that i know that it was 19 minutes it is still a lot of time

Paramedics don't rush to a gun scene especially if the area is high crime. They wait for the potential retaliation to disperse.

Dude our agencies don’t even like us going more than 10mph over the speed limit. How is that the medic’s fault? Plus the police typically have to give us the go-ahead to get on site when guns are involved. I’ve been shot at while staging for a SWAT team, and that day I learned my lesson about how far back I want to be before the scene is clear. Point is, there are protocols to keep us safe. Can’t do much for people if we’re dead.

@Keila Myles as an EMT, your expectations for our ETA is ridiculous. We literally cannot teleport on scene, and we have to make sure the scene is secure before even setting foot on the premises. Especially when a firearm is involved.

Patient location, Current location of emergent providers (enroute to another call or transporting a patient), dispatching time, asking another Municipality for back up etc.. it's overwhelming with so many baby boomers at the age they are and the shortages in funding for the municipal emergency providers to the point they subcontract the work to privatized ambulance companies to cut the costs on pension/health care/vehicle costs. The cure is instead of complaining, do something within your community to help ensure this doesn't happening to you or yours.
BTW, scene safety is a priority when there's a violent crime and the scene isn't secured(perpetrator isn't in custody, explosive devices haven't been located etc..), then the medics are not obligated to assist the patient since it's redundant to try to help someone when your own life could be jeopardized. I've had people in the worst neighborhoods throw empty glass bottles at the ambulance to get us to stop...
.then they'll try to either steal/car jack the onboard medications or the entire ambulance itself because their momentary emotional decision felt better than the rational long term repercussions.

Everything surrounding the incident took seconds...except for the paramedics arrival smh they killed him...he probably woulda been alive

There can be reasons for it. I was a 911 dispatcher for a few years, and my husband has been a paramedic since forever.. We’ve both worked for cities and rural communities, both have times where EMS can take a while to make scene. Either they did not have any available ambulances and had to request mutual aid, they could have been fairly rural, or could have been staging for scene safety. Our goal was to have EMS dispatched within 30 seconds of receiving a call, have EMS en-route within 1 minute from dispatch. It didn’t always happen that fast, but there are a few reasons why EMS may take 19 minutes to arrive on a scene and that’s why it’s important that you know basic skills like cpr and how to help stop bleeding, it could save someones life.

They have to arrive a little later because they have to make sure the scene is clear and safe. Can't be too sure that whatever shooter wouldn't open fire on them

only so much they can do there’s so many people who call them daily, I’m currently working towards that profession to hopefully help reduce that problem


cop gave him countless chances to say "i felt my life was in danger"

@Nyx Another racism mind reader. You would think psychics to be rare. But here we are.

@Nyx Does the logic used in my comment look like a troll?

You know deep down what I said matches reality.  You just hate admitting to yourself that the real world doesn't match what you wish the world was.

Frankly, I find YOUR comment to be the audacious one as it insults victims of REAL racism AND insults non-Black people.

@Larry Chunk somehow i hope that you are trolling my comment and not actually have the adaucity to say that intentionally

@Nyx If the guy wasn't black he probably wouldn't have shoved the dude.

Black guys have aggression issues.  Imagine if that dead idiot was an Asian guy - he would probably have parked in the right spot thus avoiding the whole issue.   And even if he did park in the wrong spot an Asian dude surely wouldn't shove the guy down.

Black guy, though?  Yup - lawbreaking and physical aggression.  "HE ONLY SHOT HIM CAUSE HE'S BLACK!"
🙄🙄🙄

@Nyx But you have to stick to the facts of a case. Yes, you have seen/witnessed/been a victim of racial prejudice in your own country, but there is no evidence that the above clip contained anything provoked by racial prejudice. If you are going to claim that about the white guy, the same useless surmising could be made about the black guy.

He said that he thought they beat him to "a pulp". 1 hit or kick can kill a person.

@Jdb i am not ...but in my country people with dark skin are always perceived as "more dangerous and unpredictable" and i really hate that. Racism feels pretty illegal there in america but here is "acceptable", it should be but well... And i do see white people always throwing blame on the dark ones

@Nyx Why should we all agree on something with no evidence to suggest it is true? Why are you so eager to make this a race issue?

@Nyx Not so sure. Did he say "He is black so he wants to kill me."? It came up in investigations that he was involved in four previous incidents of aggression. What were the racial types of the others involved in those? The way I see it, he didn't have to say anything about the car being parked in the Handicapped zone. The deceased victim didn't have to shove him to the ground and Drejka didn't have to shoot his gun. At each point of the whole episode, the two men escalated to unnecessary levels and the actual issue was left far behind. Drejka was absolutely wrong in shooting him. It was not necessary at all and his conviction, based on past incidents and the testimony and footage of this one, is justified.

A life time of south park has taught me you can shoot something if you shout. " it's comming right for me!"

He never outgrew the "cap gun, bang I got you phase" or something.

@Amber’s ALERTTS option D: I wanted to use my toy that I got

Lol in 34:02 he literally hint him to say that he felt in danger

yeah, I think their trying to squeeze him to tell them that he only did that bec of self defense 😂

Can we all agree that if the man wasn't black this 99% would't have happened? He said he is not racist,  but in that moment he was 100% . Mabye not actively racist but in that moment damn sure the thought " he is black so he wants to kill me" .

Michael Dunn could've coached him up beforehand.

Omg it’s painful 😂🤦♀the cop asks him the same question like 10 diff ways, only thing left for him to say was “ OK we will do this multiple choice - did you A- feel your life was in danger B- afraid you were gonna die or C- both ?? 😂


Amazing how quickly his arm healed during the interrogation. It’s miraculous

@SeEpiN ur joking right? You think having a hole in ur chest or worse stomach isn't painful. U should search up getting shot in the belly button, one of the most painful things one can experience. Also it doesn't feel nice feeling ur organs slowly failing and the bleeding out.

Lol I was looking for this comment! He makes a point of letting the detectives know his arm is hurt. They leave for so long he sets it on the table like nothing but when They come in catch him off guard and starts faking it again

@SeEpiN That makes sense, I would assume it’s because of the adrenaline

@Booch I heard gun shots are not painful. Death isn’t always painful.

Idk why more people aren’t talking about it lmao, ironic how he claims that his arm hurts, wonder how the guy he shot felt

I laughed when he walk in using his shirt as a sling but next thing you know it’s was good as new 🙄


Who I their right mind would be willing to go to prison over people parking in a handicap spot ? This is totally insane !

@Tyler Grant Is someone in his family handicapped?  I'm curious if there was some other personal motivation.  But yeah as you say he may just be one of those busy bodies.

@SwissJoker Yes indeed.   The significant delay in point and shoot is what would have made me vote guilty... I didn't notice the decedent retreating at first presentation..  So I believe the defendant thinking that wasn't happening.  I think manslaughter was an appropriate charge... I think asking for the max sentence was over the top... mitigating circumstance of having been violently assaulted without warning should be taken into account.

Tyler Grant vThanks Tyler ur explanation makes sense in some kind of odd way, I personally don’t have that kind of personality so it’s hard for me to relate. I do know the store owner told him time and time again not to do what he was doing, however I guess he couldn’t help himself like you said it was just his style do you want to tell people how to act. I think ur talking points was right on tho.  Be blessed ...Howie <><

Howard Manley well I don’t believe he approached her looking to shoot somebody. I think he was trying to play cop in a situation that was that big of a deal to begin with. I know people like him. My brother used to be like him. We worked at Burger King together and everyone hated him because he would try to tell everyone how to do their job and stuff. He wasn’t a manager. He was in no position to beaming demands of the employees. This guy is similar. He believes he’s morally superior, so he feels that it’s necessary for him to address when people are breaking the law. It’s not his job, he’s not helping the cops out, he just does it. I agree that he was aware that it could cause a confrontation. But he wasn’t afraid because he had his gun on him. I think he should have been charged with 2nd degree murder instead of manslaughter, but I definitely don’t think he did it simply to cause a scene or start an altercation. He did it because he had an authority complex like he’s morally superior to everyone else. Like it’s his job to make sure people are following the law. It’s equally dumb of him, but I don’t think he was looking for trouble. He would have felt perfectly happy and accomplished if she said, “I’m sorry, I’ll em my vehicle as soon as my husband gets back with the keys.” I didn’t think he would have continued to push the issue.

Howard Manley Indeed but I dont think that justified the guy just shoving him to the floor.... Thats why this is even a close case and self defense is a viable defense strategy

That’s not what it was about lol it started as that, but then it escalated to a physical altercation; which is what the shooting was about. Obviously lol

SwissJoker  Hi from what I understand , this Guy lived in his neighborhood and would on a consistent basis Would Hassled people on a daily basis about parking in the handicap spot , even the owner of store was aware of what he was doing. He knew there was a chance of confrontation when he would approach these people without a handicap emblem...

I think it has more to do with the guy just pushing him to the floor

Seemed to me like he wanted an opportunity to kill with less risk of imprisonment.


"I've never been in that situation before"

When I was a kid I liked reading science books. One time I read a book about snakes and it said baby snakes were actually the most dangerous. Baby snakes don't have the skill or control of their venom glands that an adult has. As a result a young snake might inject you with all their venom in a single bite rather than giving a small dose. That's what this guy is. An inexperienced baby.

@Virgil that analogy still works for this baby

@Ana R if he was concerned about his kids safety he wouldnt start a fight in front of them especially in a gun friendly state like florida. he technically threw the first punch. he was being a thug. he even hesitated before he pushed him. quite different than your incident. he didnt deserve to get shot though

I agree with the other commenters great analogy and quite thought provoking

Honestly I’ve been in a situation where while at a indoor play area I saw my 2yr old daughter was being pinned against the wall and being yelled at by a much older boy probably 9yrs old. I can’t explain it or really remember but all I know is I must of run across the area and shoved the boy down. I don’t even remember running or anything I just remember coming out of a fog and after seeing my baby was okay realizing I just pushed a kid down. He wasn’t hurt and thankfully no one saw lol but I was in shock that I did that. I learned that day what momma bear means. I think that might be what this man experienced when he walked out of the store and saw a man yelling at his wife with his child in the car.

@Dudeno. That's not the case. After he showed the gun the black guy was trying to get away. Just watch the footage again.

Maybe you are right and the black guy would have beaten him up if he had not pulled out the gun. I give you that.  But there was NO need to shoot the weapon at a person that is clearly retreating.

@Liberty Prime He and Dunn both had an itch

BAAAAABYYY Snake doo,doo...doodoo..doo,doo !

I disagree. I believe if he would not have shot that man, that man would have beat him senseless...

the victim was a baby too. he ran right out of the store and immediately jumped the guy. drejka wasnt even being physically threatening.

It was self defense if he didn’t pull the gun out he would’ve got beaten

Wow. Excellent.. this is why more kids need to READ. You develop badass analogies....

You placed that analogy so perfectly! 👌

I just learned something about snakes under a video about an unjustified shooting lol

Baby snake actually do have control of their venom release. The reason they tend to inject all their venom is because they don't have the body mass, speed or stamina of adults during confrontation (whether hunting or defending themself) so they make sure that their bite is lethal as quickly as possible.

You mean to say to us that Youtube vids arent legit experience??

I hear that notion of baby snakes is false or at least unreliable.

On topic though, I think this was a bit different. I think this guy was itching to use his gun.

Evidenced by how he had previously aimed it at 4 other people in traffic related incidents.

Mate that's actually a brilliant analogy I'll definitely remember that.


He's like that kid in primary school who always faked injuries to make it seem like nothing was his fault or justifiable or they just wanted pity.


You should never be this nonchalant after shooting someone. Even if it was justified which this clearly wasn't lol.

I feel like I would be getting over the trauma for years.

@Derk you can say the same thing about the guy trying to yell at a woman with a kid not considering she may have a big husband coming around the corner. he picked the wrong woman to try to scare and feel manly about it

Yes, show some empathy for another human being, especially when the man had his family with him.  Terrible thing to do and an awful waste, for parking in a handicap space!!!???

Perplexer1 i genuinely can’t tell if you’re joking or not .... if you aren’t YIKES

Nobody should be expected to feel traumatized after shooting an aggressive animal that physically attacks you without provocation. I would have felt proud of being able to protect myself.

@Antonio man Look where being 'hard' got this dude. The dude so 'hard' he had never got in a fight and only had the balls to confront people because of his gun.

How brave.

There’s a whole thread on Reddit of people who have killed someone legally, a lot of them have admitted their own shame in feeling nothing at all afterwards, so it’s not necessarily an admission of being guilt to be this nonchalant. Having said that though this guy is guilty, the other dude didn’t advance once the weapon was drawn and he made no attempt to tell him to back off, he just fired.

@Antonio man lol maybe, still open carrying requires a lot of restraint. I think most people after shooting someone even if they were attacked, if they are a civilian and not use to kill or be killed of say war. Killing someone would affect them you know.


I love how his right arm stops "hurting" when he forgets to pretend it hurts. Then he remembers and goes back into the act.

@xXi-MexicaN-iXx Would you mind telling me what leads you to believe that racism was a motivating factor in this crime? Honest question.

The detective kept grabbing his arm where he said it was hurting. The detective was intentionally grabbing him, Which would have made it hurt. Prompting him to tell the detective to stop grabbing his arm.<br>Feigning sympathy while grabbing his hurt arm to cause pain, is often a technique of psychopaths and cops.

He basically said because he always carries a gun, he had the safe feeling that he could confront people in this way. So hes basically prepared to shoot someone at any time if he perceives a threat, whether logical or not.

Did he have pepper spray on him? You don't want the only defense tool you have to be a deadly weapon with nothing in between. Had the guy backing up still been a threat in his mind then mace him and thats that. Even if you were deemed to not be in the danger you thought those kids still have their Dad and you're facing prob at most simple assault and likely no charges as dude did push him. Have some mace in addition if you choose to carry a firearm. Would  have saved multiple lives including the kids and the moms who don't have their Dad now. Lose lose lose all the way through.

And it's the exact other way around. If you're carrying a gun (which I encourage), you're now responsible for the gun you carry, and whatever comes out of it, always. You should always try to de-escalate, but if you're armed, you have a double duty to not get into stupid arguments, and de-escalate situations. Just as you have a duty to not drink, for example (while carrying the gun, if you're gonna go out drinking, leave the car and the gun at home). It's also your duty to protect your gun, if somebody takes your gun from you, be it a kid because you left it unprotected, or a criminal. You're responsible for keeping it secure.

A gun brings new responsibilities. This guy, instead of responsibilities, thought "I can do whatever I want, because I have a gun".

Yes, he instigated a confrontation and then immediately resorted to shooting the first person who pushed him.

Yup pretty stupid but you'd ne surprised how many ppl have this mindset


The detectives gave him every chance to say he felt his life was in danger. This kind of situation scares the $hit out of me! My man would have done the same thing if he came out of the store and saw some guy in my face. This guy only felt brave enough to provoke this situation because he carried a gun. He is not the victim. He is a coward! My opinion!

@David I never said that the boyfriend was right for charging at Michael, although I wouldn't blame him for doing so because Michael shouldn't be instigating people in the first place. I was simply saying that the one post was pointing that the boyfriend was deserving of what he got (which he absolutely did not). If saying that triggered you then you probably should get some help as you may likely be one of Michael's kind and end up shooting someone unnecessarily and unlawfully.

Exactly. Fools like him are emboldened by carrying a gun, and have a chip on their shoulder, just daring someone to knock it off, so they have an excuse to shoot. It had nothing to do with self-defense. He was the aggressor.

You don't get to tackle someone just because they are yelling at your wife. Of course he shouldn't have been killed for it and it's good they found Michael guilty. But if you think getting physical with someone because they are trash talking is OK then I'm sorry you weren't raised right.

And all he had to say one time was he felt fear for his life .. i felt they basically was trying to give him multiple outs !! Smh

@jimbo Meadows also if your gonna shoot someone for pushing you, then you needa go back to 2nd grade

@jimbo Meadows So if someone is threatening your wife, husband, SO, whatever, your just gonna stand there and let it happen?

@Brett Allen maybe start typing like a sane person if you want to have your thoughts read by others?

Марина Ёлкина

SHE"S SAYING HER BOYFRIEND WOULD HAVE DONE WHAT MARKIES DID, WHICH WAS ABSOLUTELY THE WRONG THING. HAD HE NOT GOT KILLED HE'D HAVE BEEN GUILTY OF ASSAULT. DREDJA NEVER RAISED A HAND TO HIM WHEN MARKEIS SHOVED HIM DOWN. BEING AN ASSHOLE ISNT GROUNDS FOR ASSAULT. HIS WIFE ALSO SHOULD HAVE STAYED IN THE CAR, SHE"S ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR ESCALTING THE SITUATION - ALTHO DREDJKA STILL HAD NO RIGHT TO SHOOT HIM... HE COULD HAVE JUST GOT A PLATE AND CALLED THE COPS... OR IF MARKEIS CAME AT HIM, BACKED MARKEIS OFF WITH THE GUN WITHOUT KILLING HIM. NOW HAD DJEDKA BEEN HANDICAPPED, AND MARKEIS CAME AT HIM AGAIN, HE LIKELY WOULD HAVE HAD GROUNDS... OR HAD HE CLAIMED HE WAS IN FEAR FOR HIS LIFE HE"D HAVE HAD A BETTER CASE, BUT YA CANT BRING A GUN TO A FIST FIGHT WHEN YOU'RE PHYSICALLY CAPABLE. THESE STAND YOU GROUND LAWS ARE CRAZY< PEOPLE THINK THEY CAN JUST SHOOT SOMEONE WITHOUT MEETING THE CRITERIA.

@Jim Bob Pitbulls are one of the most sweetest breeds I've ever known of. 😍

@hm rq i don't think you watched the video in full big lad

@hm rq did you watch the video? the shooter had 4 previous encounters where he pulled guns out on people for ridiculous reasons.

Get a pitbull ladies, they make better attack dogs than boyfriends....

Hahaha use your man like that. You married to him?


This dude will always believe what he did was justified, even as he sits in prison. I bet he learned nothing.

@J K Why you gotta bring race into this? Maybe he had a family member who's disabled and is tired of people taking the parking spot? Maybe he works for a parking firm and deals with this often, etc. etc. Could be a thousand reasons. You really can't break a law and complain that it's enforced or that people complain about it when you do.

@Sebastian Thorsen Keeping in mind that he himself parked illegally.

@Youssef Elhenawy I don't believe he did. The dude is sick. He seems to not care at all. Even in prison he's probably still saying that he's in there for no reason. Some BS like that

They parked illegally. He confronted them about it, which was probably a bit much, but understandable. Victim walks out and pushes him hard, which was a big overreaction. He pulls out his gun and shoots which is indefensible.

Na in prison you have a lot of Time to think. Im sure he analyzed what happened from everyone’s perspective


Near as I can tell, this guy was carrying a gun for the sole purpose of someday getting the chance to shoot someone.

@A Blank Slate I can't help feeling this sentence could only be said by someone living in the US or some 3rd world country

trolling fun...dont u get the point...u should do better..marquis ddnt..im careful

35:00 is why not because he wanted to kill

35:00 is why not because he wanted to kill

I don’t think so. I think he thought it was a good idea, but he was weak and afraid when a confrontation actually happened. This is exactly what makes out of shape and afraid cops dangerous. They don’t “want” to shoot anyone, but they as so afraid they resort to deadly force quickly.

@Long Bong That's a .78% chance, in a year. This isn't a cherry picked statistic. One of the main reasons people own firearms for home defense. Home invasions are incredibly common. And self defense uses of firearms is fairly common too. According to a CDC study done during the Obama administration, the lowest estimate was 60-150 thousand self defense uses a year.

If we're going to use your argument, well why lock our doors? Why teach our kids not to follow strangers? Why wear seat belts? Follow the rules of the road and the chance you'll be injured or worse in an accident isn't really much higher. Wearing a seat belt doesn't make someone scared. It's just called being prepared for a possible reality. Now, if the subject was preppers with hundreds of guns and hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammo, you'd have a point. But we aren't talking about those people, we're talking about the average gun owner who owns a gun for self defense. And even if some people do own guns because they're scared something might happen to them or their family, so what? If I lived in the worst block in Flint Michigan, and there are gunshots just about every night right outside my door, I'd be scared for my family. I pity you if you wouldn't feel the same.

@Borkborknomnom 9000 0.78125%. That's a 0.78125% chance with your own cherry picked statistic. Sounds like i'm hitting close to home for you. I'm sorry you're scared all the time dude, maybe try less Fox news?

@Long Bong I'm going to repeat what you said. Reading comprehension. I didn't mention gun control. I'm only talking about that preparing for a technically unlikely but still very possible situation, is perfectly fine. You sound like a complete fudd. People aren't constantly worried, it's just they prepare. Not that hard to understand. And it's not as unlikely and you're making it out to be. The statistics show that.

@Long Bong Ok, and statistically it's unlikely for my house to burn down considering what I cook and how much I cook. Does that mean I shouldn't have a fire extinguisher? The point of having it is to remove the worry. Especially for people in bad neighborhoods where those types of things ARE a common occurrence.

Which, according to the actual statistics from the US Department of Justice, there are about 1 million burglaries every year where a member of the household is present.  There are 128 million households in the US. So just base numbers here... there's a 1 in 128 chance your house will be robbed while you're home, which isn't exactly a safe situation to be in.

@CrunchyWolf that logic is extremely flawed

@CrunchyWolf that logic is extremely flawed

Here's a comforting thought...we have hundreds of cops with the same attitude.  Giving people like this a firearm is like giving a 6 year a brand new bicycle and telling them they can't ride it.

You  mean like every gun owner in America?

You  mean like every gun owner in America?

John Costa definitely he could have just whipped his gun out as a threat but he had to shoot straight away even though the other guy had no weapon.

@Tall Dwarf but someone did die neccesarily wouldn't you agree?

@Long Bong He has a point though, you cannot under any circumstances count on the Police to show up, protect you and save the day. It just doesn't happen, it takes minutes at best for the Police to arrive when seconds of your life are at stake.

He was soooo proud to kill himself a black man. So obvious

remember guns dont kill people... it is the unicorn flying over the pink clouds

I mean, that's why most people carry technically

If what he said in the interrogation was true then he's been conceal carrying for 26 years and apparently has gotten into some kind of traffic altercations with 4 people before this incident. If he was really looking to use the gun trying to be a hero he sure waited a long time to do it.

@Reb el Do you have any basis for this? From what I know with researchers interviewing prisoners, criminals in general will avoid potential victims if they think they may be carrying a weapon.

Plenty of people like this with itchy trigger fingers who think they're justified simply because they have it.

A lot of comments here are basically the comments that the rest of the world will never agree with. The "America needs more guns" mindset is utterly baffling.

What do you Americans call it... wannabe hall monitors?

I think it was to defend himself but he overeacted

@A Blank Slate <br>Most aren't actively looking for it, though.

@A Blank Slate
Most aren't actively looking for it, though.

And finally he gets what he wished for!  YAY!  <br>Now he has 20 years to celebrite his accomplishment.  In prison.

Now he has 20 years to celebrite his accomplishment.  In prison.

Long Bong Bro not everyone lives in the suburbs like you. People get their homes broken into a lot.

See “Michael Dunn” < another example of this kind of person.

@Reb el If you carry a gun and people know it you are much less likely to be robbed because its just too dangerous for the criminals

@Trouble_Always_Inbound Seriously. And he had 4 prior incidents of drawing his gun on other people - how did he still have a license?

@1onefix1 when someone is on a video like this defending the shooter, yes you should shame them. <br>No one said all gun owners, no one said any generalizations, but this guy mustered up a whole braindead rant that isn't even related to the situation.

GUYS!! I'm pro gun, including concealed carry. And secondly I have been attacked and nearly killed, from behind and if I was carrying a gun he would have killed me with it he actually got exhausted trying to crack my head open with his Nikes and gave up. I'm just saying THIS INDIVIDUAL rings true to me as a guy just waiting to kill someone. That's all.

The thing with carrying a weapon is, that it's not always a security measure but just dialing up the degree of violence. If a criminal knows that victims might carry a gun, they're more likely to take one as well. If guns are involved, they're more likely to get used. And you probably won't get to pull a weapon if a criminal has a gun themselves. Unless you have some time to prepare for an attack.

@NLR 1996 Why are you so scared dude? Please seek help before you hurt someone.

There are too many in the world with this mindset.


Update, Drejka was sentenced to 20 years in prison. He'll be 69 years old at his release date. I wonder if his arm will have healed by then...

@Jeff Kaplan got a lot of free time on your hands, eh Jeff ?:D

Wonder how long after he gets out before he "defends himself" again.


the fake ass sadness he puts on after they tell him the man died is pathetic

exactly. he’s literally proud of his crime. it infuriates me


This guy couldn't wait to pop somebody. These types of guys go to bed at night just dreaming about shooting "bag guys", but are actually the bad guys themselves.

@TTV_MrJack People die from getting shoved dude,  If you hit your head wrong its lights out, game over.    A violent thug creature attacked him from behind.  He got what was coming to him.

I do believe he was looking for trouble. And while I also believe this was definitely murder, her boyfriend absolutely should not have pushed him, or at least not that hard.

It doesn’t matter what this guy says, to your girl or in front of your girl. Until physical threat is displayed, you cannot lay hands on someone. He should’ve practiced some self-control. Just walk away, direct your woman and kids back in the car; let the moron who’s looking for trouble, find the trouble somewhere else.

Just because someone else is in the wrong, doesn’t mean it’s up to you to make it right. Because sometimes making it right, will cost you something.

@uncledibby barney bois? Can you explain?

He didn’t force the guy to assault him from the back much less be a dibshit and park in a handicap spot lol

@Justin Holmes Markeis may have made the first physical move, but Drejka started the altercation. If some guy started screaming in my wife/partners face I would have probably done more than shove him. Let's face it, that's why he screamed at his wife, he knew it'd get the bigger reaction, its a male pride/spouse defense thing and most of us know it.
You can't provoke someone deliberately then claim self defense when it escalates and a bullet isn't the next level response to being pushed.
Regardless, Drejka pulled his gun and Markeis backed up, if he'd stepped towards him again then things might be a little 'greyer' but if you shoot someone who's backing down, your f@&ked.

Yup, got that impression too. The way he thinks he knows how to talk to the cop's on a technical level, the way he seems to know the intricate details of fire arm self defense. The previous 3 events with road rage incidences with him drawing his gun.
This guy in my opinion was just looking for altercations to get into and trying to provoke the other person into a response that he thought would justify him discharging his firearm.
Ironically and without realising it, I think Markeis was the one standing up to the loud mouth bully that day, not Durkeri.

@Gronald Scratch you clearly don't understand what im saying. Its fine. Its youtube. Good luck in life

I know of some of them kinds of people and yes.

I work at a gun store and, yes, you’re right. I see these kinds of people all the time. It’s so disappointing to hear them try to deny their wishing of being put into a self defense situation, while waxing about their ability or capacity to “do what they gotta do”. I’m sure this type of case is much, much too common.

@AlmedinG maybe he was more sane previously. People don't become hungry to shoot over night. It's a process. Just like very few people with gambling and alcohol addictions don't just become addicted overnight.

@auto144p He started a fight. That is what happens when you shove somebody. He could have just as easily walked to his car rather than shoving the guy....

Poor bag guys, they just try to float around the sky, why he gotta shoot them

@Yoyi Yoyo I agree, he was probably scared half to death but he did have enough time to assess the situation before shooting

@Yoyi Yoyo someone pushing you onto the ground over a parking dispute is in no way an excuse to pull a gun under any circumstances, regardless of how the gun is going to be used.

@Andrew Francis it's not that funny, because that's exactly what happened... that same guy had been part of multiple incidents before that thankfully didn't escalate to the level of this.

Lmao I bet he brought that gun everywhere with him just waiting and hoping he could use it. When he got shoved I bet he thought “This is my chance!”

@Pauul Kubasek i see them all the time at my local supermarket

@moshtito He pushed the guy for screaming bloody murder at his wife and getting close to the car. This isn't a justification whatsoever, not for the shots fired during that whole event.

It's also worth noting that Drejka had a concealed carry license. The gun wasn't visible - it wasn't SUPPOSED to be visible. If it were, perhaps McGlockton wouldn't have pushed him, but even then, you never expect to get shot over a parking space. And no one should have to.

@moshtito my understanding is that the guy who had the gun confronted the other guy inside the the store before the incident. I could be wrong though. Either way, don't start fights if you're not prepared to deal with a crazy guy with a gun

@moshtito I agree with the notion that aggressing strangers is dangerous


In case anyone is wondering, he was sentenced for 20 years in October 2019.

I think he is already out because of covid....

@Saffier Van der hoef 20 for this and i saw a kid 17 old that go on to a robbery with a uncle, dont do anything, and got 40 [even when he was clear reabilitated, but the judge give him the finger] ( he was black)

Saffier Van der hoef would be less usually in Canada.

Logan Frost violent cases are usually still 85% of the sentence. Non violent can drop to 33%.

SittingBearProd not rly worth my Google time

not from us, but i love to see trials and stuff, and i know usa have harsh sentences ( max here is 25 for the worst crime), but 20 for this in the usa context i think its not "many" ( but i belive\agress that a 25 limit is adequate). just feels to me "low" for the usa standards. this guy just killed because he wanted, i guess he should have been acused of murder not Manslaughter.

This channel shows the contrast. That girl who murdered her daughter is free right now

@Logan Frost yeah, probably 😖 The way of the world really is something else.. full of people that feast on being below zero..

@SittingBearProd yes, im aware.. I was reading to see more than just that. Thank you for your help advice regardless.

Beautiful Boy you know there’s a thing called google too!

I was wondering, and that is exactly what I was searching for in these comments.  Thank you


His lack of remorse after having just killed a father is pretty shocking. Hearing that he had used his firearm in other traffic incidents raises major red flags.

when he was brought in for the interrogation, was the guy pronnounced dead yet?

He assaulted him and he also didn’t know if he even hit him at this time so. I think they are both in the wrong the guy should not have pushed him outta nowhere like that for no reason and Michael shouldn’t have shot him as he backed away

@khali edwards mate it was hardly assault

@Mark Stark McGlockton was inside the store well before Drejka arrived.  Not that it matters because we don't live in some backwards honor culture where a woman must be spoken to through her husband (which he wasn't, they were only boyfriend/girlfriend) and disrespect is answerable with violence.

@thrdeye the disrespect you would have to even have the gall to walk up to my car talk shit to my wife bro and speak to her without me present knowing I’m around and we could talk it out ? Nah that’s not how that work

@khali edwards he could’ve just blatantly smoked dude for walking up to his car and claimed he thought his wife was in danger right? He wasn’t in deadly situations got pushed . People get shoved all the time . When you got shoved at school did you pull out a 45 and shoot probably not . We all have our opinions but even if you break it down in the law dude was bogus

@Mark Stark The wife was a grown ass woman and it takes two to argue.  You can't put it all on Drejka and even if you could it wouldn't justify physical force in response to a mere argument.  Especially if you're going to keep coming at someone after you've knocked them to the ground.  That's a serious threat.

And being black has nothing to do with it.  Not even sure why you think that matters.  Black people can control themselves just like everybody else.

@khali edwards I’ve been assaulted plenty of times in school out of school in jail and If I were to do what he did id be in jail for life lol

@khali edwards dude don’t argue with a black dudes wife or your are subject to get done like he did dude

According to the interrogation he didn’t even know if he hit him. So how is he supposed to know he killed him?

@khali edwards dude, of course he did wrong assaulting him... but doesn't justify killing him!! in front of his wife and three kids!! absolutely outrageous to read people defending a KILLER.

@khali edwards I wasn't really speaking legally. I was just pointing out he had a reason to push him. He wasn't yelling at him. He was yelling at a his wife and 3 kids under 6 yrs old. I'd imagine pushing him away would be a somewhat natural response for a dad/husband who thinks his family is being threatened.

@khali edwards how do you see a guy getting pushed away from the lady and children he had no authority to be yelling at as "assaulted for no reason"?

@khali edwards There were witnesses that said there was loud screaming, so it is justified that he is defensive once realizing that a grown man is screaming at his girl. You’re defending him, period. No matter how you phrase it, no matter how many metaphors or hypothetical situations you create...your end point is: he should’ve never “assaulted” him. So at the end of the day, you are still on the shooters side and throwing a tantrum that people “aren’t understanding your point”. No, we understand it, and it’s wrong.

@khali edwards once again. completely different situations. if he had just never approached the car then i could arguably say then none of this would have happened. someone pushing you does not give the right to shoot someone. it would’ve been a different story if they were both armed or the other guy had beaten him to a pulp. if it was a women then it once again would’ve been a completely different situation. as explained in the video. the father takes his step back away from the gun after seeing the gun and is then shot after. if this situation happened where a women was pushed and then soon after the pusher was backing up and shot then yes maybe she would be put to court for manslaughter. i wasn’t bringing attention to the fact that he was a father in anyway. in fact was not responding to that part of your comment at all. you saying that is he was a father is irrelevant is a part of your argument rather than the whole argument.

@khali edwards and Im not answering your "what ifs" because I dont think they are relevant. We have no idea how Michael would have responded if marquis shouted instead of shoving, shooting him was already an over reaction, we cant know for sure if he wouldnt also overreact to a man shouting at him. Hes pulled out his gun over less in the past.
I didnt get that part of slugging, do you mean if marquis slugged michael or if michael slugged marquis?
And the last point we can also say "if drejka hadnt gotten into a heated argument(that he instigated) he wouldnt be serving a 30 year sentence in prision".
I just dont see the point in questions like that, theres a million what ifs that would have changed everything, but things happened the way they did and thats we can really go with.

@khali edwards and I get that, but no one was saying that him being a father was relevant to the assault(which even then it kinda is my man, drejka was shouting at his wife, who was there with his kids in the middle of the night) so its not like marquis assaulted him for "no reason", even if its not justified, he had a pretty good reason:protect his wife and kids.

@khali edwards I trully hope you dont genuinely believe that, I really hope that if you killed a man in fron of his kids you would at least feel remorse(which is the only relevant part of being a father here, the remorse).
And yeah the decition to immediately shove him was horrible. But then again, drejka also placed himself in a situation that he admits coupd have been dangerous and he also admits that if he didnt carey a gun, he wouldnt have confronted the woman over a parking space. And by that logic if drejka hadnt shot a man he wouldn't be doing 30 years in prision.
And we really dont know if michael would have shot him either way, he was found guilty of brandishing his gun at other people over traffic and stuff like that. And the shot was unessary to begin with, just showing his gun was more than enough force and would have been the best response, but then he went on and shot a man who was walking away "in self defense".
It seems to me he was just scared and has no idea what self defense means, but given his past behavior of brandishing guns its also possible he was just waiting for an excuse to use it.

@khali edwards

First of all I'm not pivoting. I'm directly addressing your, "if he hadn't pushed him" arguement. I'm taking it further and saying if the gun toter had taken the plate number and dailed 911, this whole situation wouldn't have happened.

I personally don't  care how pissed off someone is about a parking space that no handicapped person is complaining about. If a handicapped person had confronted her, then MAYBE my opinion would be different. Michael was not in need of that spot, and if he was pissed off over concrete with painted lines over them, he needs to get a life. He claims he was retired at 30, which stands to reason why he has no life. Which also explains why he is patrolling a gas station parking lot.

You know nothing of what i believe politically. I don't care about people having guns. I have a problem with idiots shooting and killing someone with it because they were pushed, after starting a confrontation for no reason

@khali edwards If the idiot with the gun had called the police and reported the tags, this whole situation would not have happened.

He had no business approaching the car and circling it. NONE. He is not an authority figure.

@khali edwards him being a father is relevant to his lack of remorse. And you can see him come to that realization at the beginning when he talks about how all he remembers after going to his car are people talking about kids.

they see all the red flags and STILL let it slide. Always.


The moral of the story: Park wherever you god damn please, and push people around and get physical if they dare to confront you about it. Oh and NEVER talk to cops without an attorney present.

You're welcome.

Moral of the story; Don’t initiate an altercation cos you think you’re a big man, and then shoot a person cos they push you over when you are appearing to be a threat to his wife and family. This man deserves to do prison time, he took a life, that he clearly shouldn’t have. Your view of this is skewed. You’re welcome.


Wow, what a sad case. I feel terrible for the victim, and their family.

I entirely agree with the sentence, but I do believe that Michael didn't have malicious intent. I believe that he was already in a frantic state from his argument, and with his mind racing wasn't thinking properly. But that doesn't excuse the fact that he shot a man who was protecting his family, and then retreating when he saw the gun.

@serpens8 He pulled the gun and chose to shoot, but 2 people he was aiming towards were already attempting to flee with even less time to react.

@75ur15 - so you're saying that the reason black men to to jail more often than white women is that you think black men are biologically more violent?

@75ur15 no, you’ve got your order mixed up there. He shoved him to the ground, stood still for a split second as the suspect fell, suspect immediately draws weapon, man notices it and starts backing up as soon he saw... then was shot as he took multiple steps back. Unjustified indeed, case closed and I don’t even see why you felt the need to refute what I’ve said before.

@Funny Valentine Did Nothing Wrong she got out and approached him in sight of her husband, no grounds to shove him. the draw was also justified as he was still approaching him on the ground, halfway THROUGH the draw he starts to back away, shot not justified.

@Henry Balling pretty much the internet, you just had a place to let some grow

@Henry Balling pretty much the internet, you just had a place to let some grow

@Nytric Oxide still incorrect, he was approaching the man on the ground before the draw started

@TacoKat he was still approaching after the push, until he saw the draw happening, sooooo justified pull, not justified shot

@TacoKat he was still approaching after the push, until he saw the draw happening, sooooo justified pull, not justified shot

@Tanner then if you do you should also be in jail, scream or talk or chastise isnt illegal, and she got out and closed the distance, clearly not concerned he was a threat.

@Sean Matthew King the "shove for yelling at his wife" cant be justified as he was more than an arms length away from the vehicle when the husband came out, she got out and approached the shooter by her own choice, removes any justification

@Sean Matthew King to be fair, there are people in the comments defending the shove.

@Sean Matthew King to be fair, there are people in the comments defending the shove.

@Lil Valor no, pushed then approached, he started to move back mid draw as he saw what was happening, that said the shot is still unjustified.

@Scott Lyman he was walking towards him as he started to draw, that said it also isnt necessarily a lie if you believe what you are saying. Keeping in mind, I am not defending the shot (just the draw) and I fully support the guilty verdict.

@charlymaoo he was shoved, the man still approached him, the draw was justified, the shot (as he changed and started to move away) was not

@Zeron Peat racism is ok then when blm does it? side note, let women decide, the problem is whether or not another human life is involved. I don't share the opinion that a zygote is a human life, nor do i support the option to abort and kill a baby up to 9 months, at SOME point between those two it becomes a human life, and has its OWN rights to life. Before that happens if she doesn't want it then let her do as she wishes. The only seriously controversial part i think i have, is that a man should also be able (without HER consent) to sign away all rights and responsibilities (she must be made aware while she still has a choice) toward the child, just as she can.

@✿MJF✿ to be clear, watch the video agaiin (haven't read this full thread yet, specifically responding to "And then the guy backed away but he pulled the gun out anyway." He was APPROACHING the shooter as he drew, he started to back away in the middle of the draw, likely once he knew what was coming. having said that, the shove wasn't justified, the draw was 100% justified, the shot was NOT justified, and I support the verdict.

@Lafonda williams "the criminal being hurt" You mean murdered. The word you're looking for is murder, there. And, also, y'know. Guy wasn't a criminal. Saw someone acting in a threatening manner towards his significant other and acted. Saw the murderer-to-be was armed, visibly retreated, only to be shot anyway.

Wow, my comment really created a thread of stage-4 cancer huh

@Sean Matthew King - you say "if the guy had hit his head and died, the other guy should go to prison".

If you're dead, it doesn't help you at all that your killer is sent to prison.  Would you like to see some videos of men on the ground being kicked in the head repeatedly, their attackers stealing their pants and laughing and dancing?

@Jaco Oosthuizen I’m American and support this message. Too many terrified pussies with guns.

What percent of shoves end up in someone beating a defenseless man to death? This guy is with his family. Yes, he crossed the line shoving the guy, but nothing suggests he’s about to give up everything over this.

@Think Tank >Person who routinely harasses people over minor transgressions and immediately reaches for his gun to threaten people when things aren’t going his way.
>Person who shoots an unarmed, retreating man in the chest.
>Person who was proven guilty in court and rightly spending most of his remaining years in prison.

@Lili Da - if an old man standing there makes you want to push him down, possibly killing him, then don't be so surprised if you get shot.  Remember the cop that barely pushed an old man, and the old man fell over and hit his head and almost died?  People wanted to kill the cop for that, because idiots only look at who won and feel sorry for the loser who started it and couldn't finish it.

@ShadowDante Gaming - the police asked him if he knew talking to someone might lead to a confrontation.  Oddly, they didn't ask the same thing of the man's wife after her mouth got him killed.

Does anyone have an explanation for why white men go to jail more often than black women?

@customsongmaker Oof. Touched a nerve on that one huh. Poor guy.

@Funny Valentine Did Nothing Wrong - men are the ones with the 1/4 glass, women are the ones with the full glass.  What's your point?  And women are the ones hosting the party and deciding who gets what, since women have been the majority of voters for 100 years and decide every election.

@customsongmaker Okay, I see what you're trying to do here. So, let me break this down to a much more simple analogy.

Let's say you, me, and a third person are all at a party, right? The host starts serving drinks. The random guy gets a full glass. I get half a glass. You get 1/4 of a glass. We are not on equal footing simply because we're both not getting a full glass, because you very clearly received less than I did.

Similarly, just because men are all incarcerated at a higher rate than women, does not mean black men are not discriminated against more than white men.

Doubling down on logical fallacies doesn't make the first one magically accurate. It just makes your argument worse.

@Funny Valentine Did Nothing Wrong - why are there more white men in prison than black women?

@Funny Valentine Did Nothing Wrong - why are there more white men in prison than black women?

@customsongmaker No, I do. But, your analogy incorrectly assumes that black men are not frequently given harsher sentencing for the same, or often lesser, crimes. What lands a white guy two years probation and community service can often land a black man even longer in prison. Hence why I called out your false equivalency.

Nice attempt at trying to insinuate I'm racist though. Ten points for that.

@Funny Valentine Did Nothing Wrong - so you don't define black men as "men".

@Funny Valentine Did Nothing Wrong - so you don't define black men as "men".

@customsongmaker That's uhh...not how equivalency works, my guy.

@customsongmaker That's uhh...not how equivalency works, my guy.

Why are men 95% of the prison inmates?  Is it because of female supremacy, and because men are oppressed by our criminal justice system?  Remember that all your answers about men will also apply to black men.

Also why does someone walk around with a gun LOADED in his pocket to go to the store ????

@Tobi you either support the father or the guy who shot him. They were both engaged in combat and were trying to kill each other when the guy with the gun won. How is the guy with the gun supposed to know that the father would have used his gun behind cover when he pulled out his gun? There are many unexplored factors

@Tobi XD. He did not know if the father had a gun so he could have used the car as cover.

@Tobi XD. He did not know if the father had a gun so he could have used the car as cover.

No it is because you has a weak body and got slammed on the floor while the father was slightly stepping backwards and he did not want to wait until the father pulled out a gun or rushed him.

I just LMAO...out of the extreme irony you pointed out- not the situation, of course.

Yup. When I was young I was ignorant of how long white supremacy and nationalists specifically have had their culture in US. I though because I grew up in a time of “hey it’s not murder central” that racism wasn’t so prevalent. But I was wrong. And shamefully adopted cultural norms I thought were norms but were just norms inside these circles of racists that they try making mainstream. Literature has been one cultural tool they’ve used for a long time. White supremacists literature exists and is disgusting. Propaganda tools used to infect our minds with double thinks and double speaks. Telling ourselves “we love freedoms and small government🇺🇸“ but being ok with banning gays from marry (let alone live for a long time)  women to make bodily decisions, migrants come to this country just like how our ancestors did , etc. hypocrite are designed and made through the factories of information like movies, books, tv, events, family stories, opinions, religion, idols,

@✿MJF✿ First the (gunman) made it clear that he felt he safe to approach the car, because he had the gun.  When the husband came out due to the commotion, had the (gunman) not been so close to the car - and the wife getting out of the car -  I really think the husband would have verbally confronted the (gunman) rather than giving him the sharp shove.   The (gunman) had clearly made his point to the wife that he was offended by her parking in the handicap spot but couldn't let it go at that.  He made his point to the husband that he was offended by being shoved, and even though the husband demonstrated he got the point by backing away, the (gunman) couldn't let it go at that.  So very sad, such a senseless tragedy.

@serpens8 Exactly, he was decked from the blindside, who knows what was coming next. He needed a lawyer here, not running his mouth off.

@serpens8 you think black people are given preferential treatment in the criminal justice system 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@serpens8 you think black people are given preferential treatment in the criminal justice system 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@lex the imposter It was half a second, the guy with a gun was in a strong emotional arousal, and if he felt somewhat threatened, he was not really mistaken. He got 20 years because the "victim" was black. Just imagine the situation in reverse, a black samaritan and an arrogant white family. Do you think he would get 20 years prison? I don't think so.

@serpens8 the man was pushed yes but if you look in the security footage the man who pushed him backed up was soon as he saw the gun and stood there. he literally just shot someone who backed up from him. the man didn’t even have a weapon. he shot someone for them pushing him. please rewatch this if you still think he was in the right.

@serpens8 you should put some money on his books so he can buy some snacks for the next 20 years

@serpens8 you should put some money on his books so he can buy some snacks for the next 20 years

@serpens8 he had several road rage incidents in which he threatened other drivers with his firearm. He may have been attacked, but he sure as hell was looking for any reason to shoot someone.


Got to admire how smart these police officers are in making Drejka feel like comfortable about being under arrest. Lots of Please. Thank you. Can I get you anything? Are you OK? He clearly thinks\feels that they are on his side and fully sympathize with everything he has to say. He is made to feel that they are THERE for him, and that he is the victim who was about to be killed if he did not use his gun.


Reminds me of Michael Dunn who shot at the red car and killed a young guy because they played loud music. Both cases could have been easily avoided..but they just had to get confrontational and use their guns.

Well, other than the fact that one case was instigated by loud music and the other was instigated by being shoved 5 feet in the air, sure. Exactly the same .

@Tonja Catchings You mean the Tulsa Race Massacre, the one where 75 black guys decided to play cop and start a mini racewar?

@biscaya08 The Dunn case is very different from this. In the Dunn case the victim didn't initiate the confrontation.

@Guy Lindquist There was no rape.  Even the girl said he just grabbed her arm.  The fact that there were already over 1,000 white people present, some were armed,  and that they had already demanded Rowland be given to them is not in dispute.  Nor is there dispute that the 75 black men offered to help the sheriff protect Rowland from the already formed mob.  NOR is there any question that the first act of violence was a gun battle, not a "mass slaughter."  I understand you want to frame it in the way that best fits your "blacks are violent criminals" narrative, but none of this is in doubt, even at the time.

@Robert Campbell no you go ahead and tell me what’s inaccurate.

@Guy Lindquist That's...not accurate at all, but go on, I guess...

@Melatonin Yah, the dead guy literally did. lolz

@Guy Lindquist sounds like somebody got triggered.

Just watched him before this almost the same situation

Both events are also "man bites dog" scenarios as usually it's the black teen doing the shooting

@Guy Lindquist that’s just completely incorrect wtf is wrong with you?

Yes, I remember that. Both seemed to have waited for a chance to show how "smart" they are. Loser. Both.

@Guy Lindquist Literally all of history? Ever heard of the Tulsa Massacre?


I love your videos is saddens me that YouTube is doing this to all these channels. I really hope you guys can make it through! Much love and appreciation for all the work you put into these ❤

@Zeze Omer YouTube keeps removing videos and then letting them back up on their channel for whatever reason, but all these other channels can have the crime scene photos and what not and never be taken down so it makes no sense


It’s really interesting how the defendant uses phrases like “force multiplier”, “neutralize the threat”, etc etc. Are those police/military terms? Because I don’t think the defendant served in those fields, which makes me think he’s using them to impress the officers—frame himself as an extrajudicial authority—or because he’s watched too many war movies and it seems cool.

I think it's just to sound proficient, that way they can deflect the idea that they acted on anger or fear, which judging by the facts by themselves seem to be exactly what happened


"the gentleman you shot is deceased"
"Thanks for that, what else you got? Can I go now?"
The lack of shock or remorse is stunning


"Did he say anything?"

"N e g a t i v e"

I hope this guy enjoyed his fifteen minutes of role-playing a soldier.
