The Michigan Court of Appeals threw out a manslaughter charge against a Detroit gas station clerk who locked the door before an angry customer shot three bystanders, killing one.

Prosecutors have argued that clerk Al-Hassan Aiyash’s actions make him criminally responsible. But the appeals court said an involuntary manslaughter charge doesn’t fit.

It was “not reasonably foreseeable” that the customer, Samuel McCray, would pull out a gun and start shooting, the court said Wednesday.

    a source that records this type of information requires a people to provide legal proof that they’re breaking the law as well as providing evidence that opens them up legal & financial liability; but i’m sure you knew that

    I am not aware of that. Nor of any such organization existing. Could you name what these resources are? I would be interested in learning more.

    the closest thing you can get to it are surveys done by pollsters and that’s private information and is only shared to subscribers who are sometimes also journalists who write articles that sometimes shared it on reddit

    Are you aware of any articles written by these journalists? Can you share a link to the reddit post where you learned this from?

    in order to shut down a counter argument and help support your point.

    I’m not trying to shut anything down. This is not a “I’m right your wrong” discussion. You have your experiences which you have used to form your valid opinion. I have my experiences that I have used to form mine.

    As for my “point”, it was a request that people “please try to keep perspective of what is true risk / reward for pursuing vs walking away”. Is that what you are arguing against?
