    What a shit article, it literally skips the most important part and makes it seem like it was self-defense when it was planned. What happened is grossly misrepresented.

    This is from https://somethingsbrewingcafe.ca/linkpost/460154/ :

    According to police, Kizer traveled armed from Milwaukee to Volar’s home in Kenosha in June 2018. She shot him twice in the head, set fire to his house and took his car.

    He deserved it and it’s sketchy as hell they let him go when they busted him with home made kiddie porn. Regardless, it’s illegal to take matters into your own hands.

      No you’re just running with the prosecution’s theory of the case.

      The article gives her account, which was denied to her in court as a defense.

      One night, when he wanted to have sex and she brushed him off, she said she fell to the ground and he jumped on top of her, trying to force off her clothes. She shot him twice in the head, and then, the police said, set his body on fire.

        She first said another women shot him and she didn’t know him, then she said she didn’t remember, then finally the account you mentioned.

        It was also a gun that she brought to his house, it’s hard to pretend it was just a lucky coincidence.

          Hard to pretend someone in her situation might want protection? Really?

          And if her story was that bad then a jury would see it. Removing her ability to use a self defence argument is just blatant rail roading.

            She put herself in a position where she needed to use it if that’s what happened. Going to the police or literally not going to his house and doing anything else would have offered her the same protection.

            Guns are suppose to be a last resort, she used it as her first.

            On top off that she burned down the house most likely to hide evidence and then lied about her part in the murder.

              So did Kyle Rittenhouse. In the exact same town. I wonder why he was able to use self defence and not her?

              And he wasn’t a victim of sex trafficking either.

                That’s funny because I was going to bring him up and decided not to. I think it’s insane he got off and what he did was very much murder as well, he knowingly and needlessly put himself in a dangerous situation as to warrant his use of a deadly weapon. There’s some similarities between the two cases in that regard imo.
