Man allegedly shoots Uber driver after thinking she was tied to phone scam

Guy had no right to fire at her. She was no threat to him.

This was murder. He must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law

He needs to be in jail. Scam or not. He took vigilante justice on that poor woman.

So he shoots a lady dead and expects not to be charged with murder?

Im tired of the old geezer gun nuts.

This world is full of terrible people

The ransom call is his story. Our story is he shot a defenceless crippled black woman three times while she offered no threat. This is a racist hate crime.

The authorities MUST bring the scam caller to justice for this as well!!!

His relatives should be charged with derelict of duty, and elderly abuse for failure to seize his car keys and initiating a "Power of Attorney;"only, after placing him at Sunny Brooke Meadows

Scammer needs to be charged too. That poor woman 💔 rest in heavenly peace

I love how law enforcement treats this brutal act of sadism as a 'tragedy' and 'sad.' This was a horrific act of brutality. The scam was just the excuse for violence. This woman was tortured and murdered in broad daylight, and this man walks free on bond. God forbid your child walks into his driveway and says something to upset him on a bad day. He is a threat to the community if ever there was a threat. This isn't pop-pop got confused and didn't know what he was doing. This was as intentional and knowingly as it gets.

Allegedly shot? Really? Are facts allegedly now? I allegedly inhaled oxygen. I hope my lungs don't sue

Wow, the account was banned...guess they will just have to use one of their other 300 accts.

He unforgively shot 3x this defenceless women even though she cried "help" cause she was black the women😢😢

Unarmed old woman is Dead

Please retrain cops to use their noggin. Dimwitt tells the scammer shes a cop and lets meet. Steller detective work there 🤦‍♀️

He admitted it 25 years to life for him

There still was no threat to this man's life!. And old age does not excuse murder!

why didn't he call the cops when he got the scam call

Legally he has zero ability to claim self defense or that he was protecting himself or anybody else. Once she started retreating away from him and he followed her anything that happened from that point forward he can’t claim self defense over. EVEN if he though she was involved in the scam and was escaping he STILL wouldn’t have any legal grounds to follow her and shoot her to death. It’s also very telling that he shot her 3 times with enough time in between shots to talk to her and taunt her while she died. These aren’t the instantaneous actions of someone in fear of their life acting on impulse, they’re the calculated actions of someone who understood those actions would lead to the death of a retreating, unarmed woman. Even if everything regarding the scam done to him is 100% accurate and he thought this woman was involved (even if she was the initial aggressor which she clearly wasn’t) he still has no ability to claim self defense once he followed her as she started retreating. This is factually murder.
