"It was pitch black. Black as your hat. There are no lights here at all. I came out of lights, the house, and saw the fox."
Sounds about right; NOT GUILTY.

Mr Tibbs, who suffers multiple sclerosis and neuralgia, said the "horrendous" three-month Essex Police investigation "devastated" his family and business.
You guys should have never turned them in. For the first time I can remember, a miss turns into a good shoot. |

In Texas he could have said "I heard those fuckers over there, so I started blasting in that general direction" and been just fine, legally.

Things are getting better over here, but there is still a mentality that blames the victim not the perpetrator. It's good that he won't face charges, and sensible that an investigation be carried out to establish the facts. That would happen in any civilised society. It's just a shame that it took so lonmg for the case to be dropped. I think that the hamgover from the nanny state anti-gun stance of the Labour Party is still present, and when we get common sense judgements as in this case, it still comes as a bit of a shock. OK, there's an argument as shooters that he should have been certain of his target and not shot into darkness where he couldn;'t see the fall of shot, But as far as I'm concerned he fired at a fox, on his own land. The fact remains that if the Burglars hadn't been on private land breaking into the property of the famer to commit an act of theft then they wouldn't have been caught in the shot pattern meant for a fox in the first place. |

They got shot...... good enough for me, and probably far more painful than anything the courts would give them.
