re: #821 Justanotherhuman

Yet how can a dead person testify that proper self-defense against an aggressor such as Z was either right or “imperfect”? He can’t. So all we have is Z’s word and his “experts” trying to contradict prosecution testimony that undue force was not used by TM, according to the injuries sustained by Z.

But it’s damned obvious that excess force was used by Z to stop any such altercation.

I would think that a punch in the nose, even if not that hard of one, would be excessive in response to somebody giving a verbal response to a question asked. And holding them on the ground, even if just to keep them there until the cops showed up, would only compound that.
