Homewood is no joke (the neighborhood Hopkins' campus is in). That guy with the sword was lucky the burglar wasn't armed to the teeth.
That is bad ass lol but his life is fucked now. No matter whos fault it was\is, that guy is going to be fucked for the rest of his life. Innocent or not, his life is going to change forever. It would have been easier on him if he didn't kill the guy.
Nope. No charges will be filed IMO if he can maintain that the burglar attacked him. Depends on the legality of the sword in his state though.... I think its pretty badass to do that though.
In oregon, if someone breaks into your home and you feel threatened, I believe you have the right to kill them. I've heard about "someone fell through the skylight trying to break in, and fell on a knife and sued the home owners" But I think that's BS. I agree though, that guy is going to be scarred from killing a man.
I have a couple friends going to Hopkins right now. That shit is serious business. The place is almost as bad as East CLE.
It depends on whether that state is a "castle" state. In some states, once someone has broken into your home, you are authorized to defend yourself. In other states, it's not quite so cut and dry.
You think he basically made a target out of himself? Man I haven't been in that area but it seems like a weird place to have one of America's premier medical institutions.
How bad is east Cleveland? I used work for a company that typically had shops in industrial areas of towns. Our location in San Bernardino was pretty bad, basically I was told never to leave the main road and if for some reason I got lost never to stop moving even for traffic signs.
I will say that his legal outlook is better if he really did only cut the guy once. If they found a bunch of pieces like Dexter would have left, he would really be screwed.
Homewood isn't as bad as West Baltimore, but it's still pretty bad. There's a part of WB called "The Pharmacy"--it's basically an open-air drug market the police can barely even stem. My point is that Baltimore is a rough, rough town, not much different than bad parts of DC.
