Two things: 1) Only a fool would set a trap like that for someone he knew wasn't a threat; and 2) Only a bigger fool would tell ANYONE about it beforehand if he did and give any kind of statement afterwards.

Whatever the facts of what the man actually did, given that the kid was clearly an intruder in another's home, there would never/could never have been a conviction without statements from the accused before and after the event. Ninety percent of the people in prison today would not be there if they could master one simple skill, shut up.


TRUE!
