“Yesterday in King County Superior Court, a jury found Marquise Tolbert not guilty of murder. He was so relieved he burst into tears.” “When I read the story, I, too, felt like bursting into tears, but for a different reason.”

Yesterday in King County Superior Court, a jury found Marquise Tolbert not guilty of murder.When I read the story, I, too, felt like bursting into tears, but for a different reason.

Tolbert fired 10 rounds; his friend fired nine. Unfortunately, there were also a lot of other people downtown. And during the course of that six-second gunbattle – six bystanders were shot by Tolbert and Tolliver. A woman in a wheelchair was shot three times in the abdomen. She went through 15 surgeries and now wears a colostomy bag. A 9-year-old walking with his family had his femur fractured.

According to the story, he will be sentenced to the time he’s spent in jail since his arrest, which means he’ll likely be released.I looked up a few self-defense laws, and I found that in West Virginia, for example, you do have a right to defend yourself, but you must act “prudently and with due care.” And if you negligently hit someone other than your attacker – that’s a crime. Same in Oklahoma. Same in Pennsylvania. Same in Kansas.
