Killed someone during a preview. I mean how do you get mad enough to kill someone during previews. Went to management and killed someone before the opening scene. I'm almost sure he had every intention on killing someone that day.
Only good cop is a dead one
It's completely baffling how the court allowed such jury instructions to be considered and deliberated by the jury. The jury essentially put Chad Oulson (He was the victim) on trial instructed jury to find him guilty without any required burden of proof while at the same time required State to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Curtis Reeves was guilty of killing Oulson. If one reads the jury instructions, the jury is required to prove the State's case beyond a reasonable doubt but not required to use any burden of proof to prove Chad Oulson was guilty of battery. I have never seen that in court where a court had instruction a jury to consider the guilt of a person without any burden of proof. Only the prosecution can bring charges against a person. The court or defense can't bring charges against a person but that is exactly what happened in this case.
Wow
Coward
Coward
Common sense no longer exists. Wokeism replaced it.
Tonight on ABC News, watch a murderer have no remorse.
t's a shame that COVID didn't or hasn't gotten Curtis or Vivian yet.
Fred Goldman is bitter The Juice survived his alleged bout with COVID-19.
The still-grieving dad of murder victim Ron Goldman told the Daily News Friday that O.J. Simpson’s claims that he nearly died from COVID last year left him with one overriding emotion — disappointment.
“Out of all the people who’ve passed away from COVID, what a shame he wasn’t one of them,” Goldman said.
“I certainly don’t think he deserves any sympathy. He’s alive, he’s free. He can do anything he wants. Everything my son can’t do,” he added.
“Honestly, the only thing that strikes a chord with me is that he didn’t think about death before. I think about his death all the time. I can think of no one better suited to be underground,” Goldman, 80, told The News.
You know, keep watching the case. You will know how cold blooded Curtis Reeves is when he will ask for his gun back. No rational or humane individual would ask for a gun back that used to kill a person with.
What movie where they watching
The only lesson I see here is “keep your hands and feet to yourself” this is taught in kindergarten. 🤷🏿♂️
So he says if he had left his gun at home that day he might not be here? Dumb. And dumb to think a mouthy dude was going to kill you in the movie theater. Dumb. He was guilty.
Forget Chad, move on, find someone else, don’t worry, be happy. Aggressor’s wife verbally slapped victim’s wife in the face. Nasty comment! Nasty woman!
Maybe this news channel should’ve showed the younger guy’s perspective from his wife.
Lmao. He is trying to say he would be dead if he had not killed him. GTFO
I’m sorry, but you should not shoot someone for that.
Acquitted? Lol. How?
Murdering coward.
"If I had left my gun at home there's a good chance I wouldn't be here today" he literally threw POPCORN at you gross
Why don’t people aim for the legs 🦵?
Russia has put Europe and the world on the brink of nuclear Armageddon. Russian occupation forces are deliberately shelling the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant. This is not a coincidence, but a deliberate attack to cause a global catastrophe.
Ukrainian Chernobyl 36 years ago became a generalized concept of global environmental and man-made disaster. Zaporizhzhya NPP is many times more powerful and dangerous than Chernobyl.
All this indicates that Putin's crimes have reached global proportions and threaten the existence of Europe and possibly humanity.
This crime clearly demonstrates the need to introduce a no-fly zone as soon as possible in order to protect not only Ukraine but Europe as a whole.
Stop the nuclear maniac!
@NATO CLOSE THE SKY OVER UKRAINE! STOP RUSSIAN AGGRESSION AGAINST UKRAINE
#StopPutin #StopRussia
America is NUTZ
Good for him! What does it say about Chad to physically and verbally attack a elderly man…Great job Richard Escobar and Dino Michaels 👍🇺🇸
The lesson here is… dont start physically assaulting someone in public. They might have a gun and will kill you in self defense.
What a coward…u get punched in the face so u shoot to kill…he forgot he's not a cop anymore so he couldn't use that as an excuse
"pray"
Matt. 39] But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
what he did was not right and not a christian thing to do. pray for your own forgivness woman
So point blank murder is an appropriate response?! Bullspit.
Theatre shooting
Shocking that a WHITE former cop was acquitted of murder. This is not justice. Guy is guilty of murder.
He should have just pulled the gun and told the guy to back off and walk out to the lobby. Call the cops. Where was the theater manager to follow Reeves back to his seat to settle both of them down?
how can you kill someone over something so little it was no big deal man hes going to Hell for sure
Because he was a cop and probably new the judge.
We have no idea if the retired cop is lying or not. Cops get away with murder all the time. Then again maybe he did hit this man out of the blue. I mean most people don't do that, usually there is an argument.
So did he punch the older guy or throw popcorn at him?
Punching a senior citizen in the face?!? F that guy!
