A man accused of fatally shooting a 15-year-old last year was beaten by members of the teen’s family during a courtroom melee in San Antonio, authorities said.

Victor Rivas, 18, who is charged with murder in the May 2022 death of Ethan Soto, was in a Bexar County courtroom Friday awaiting a preliminary hearing when he was attacked.

Rivas’ attorney, Adam LaHood, said his client was “going to be bruised and swollen” but was not otherwise injured.

Four people — two men and two juveniles — were arrested and will be charged with assault and disrupting court proceedings, the Bexar County sheriff’s office said. Their names haven’t been released.

    I used to feel bad for people like you. I used to wonder how bad your personal life must be that you need to take it out on complete strangers online.

    Then I realized that most people like you don’t necessarily have to have such bad personal lives that they feel they need to take it out on complete strangers online.

    Some of you do it because you actually think it’s funny and that the world is laughing with you and not at you. (Trust me when I say- the only ones laughing, are people just like you. And that’s a sad target audience to appeal to)

    But then I realized that no matter which of these categories you fall into, you’re still nothing but a pathetic little coward on the internet, talking a lot, and saying nothing, while offering nothing but entertainment to people that are exponentially better then you in every possible way.

    Is that what you want to be? A clown for the educated? A barely laughable side-show for people that hate you?

    (Oh, and before you go thinking that your dumb shit caused me to waste my time writing this response, it’s a copy-paste from a response I made on Reddit years ago to a sad little kid just like you. I urge anyone reading along to do the same and copy-past this to all the sad little trolls out there like this one. Maybe the minute or two it takes for them to read this will waste just enough of their time that they’ll realize that their time has been wasted in a much more entertaining way then they could ever have though of. And the only effort it took was to simply copy….

    And paste.
