So which is worse? Pulling the trigger directly or telling someone else to pull the trigger. Cause I don't see a scenario where the other two survivors took out Lloyd on their own and AH was along for the ride and had no involvement. And given that the initial first shot appears to have been non-lethal and a defensive wound, there's a good chance Lloyd was taunted and at that point it was not an accidental death.In the court of public opinion, of course it matters whether he pulled the trigger or not. Everyone is jumping to the conclusion that he did, but there's no proof of that. And if the prosecution can't prove it was AH that fired the fatal bullet, he'll always be able to say "I'm not a killer". While he may be legally guilty of accessory to murder, or conspiracy to murder, or whatever, he'll never be "a killer". It's something the public implicitly understands as separate from the legal realm. And it'll be remembered that he didn't do it.Set up by whom? If anything, it's starting to sound more like he is a thug, been involved in multiple infractions, hangs out with goons, and he was the one that called up the boys to deal with a problem.Phenix said:Again folks, innocent until proven guilty. It is still not out of the realm of possibility he was set up. While I do not think he was, it is more possible now that facts are coming out.
If you are saying that the cops are trying to make him the fall guy and pin him for this and that he wasn't the shooter. Per the laws of MA, it doesn't matter if he pulled the trigger or not. No matter how you slice it, there is no way that AH is INNOCENT. If people want to say there is a chance he is found not guilty that's different. But I don't see how anyone could suggest that he played no role in this and did nothing wrong.
As for how the case is being played out, all we have are the few documents that were leaked and a narrative given at the arraignment. I suspect the prosecution has a wheelbarrow full of evidence and other information that has not yet been made public.
