It's not my intention to give you a hard time. Just to state my extremely strong belief.
Killing is a choice. Even in self-defense.

The real question for me is what justice really means in this case. Even if one individual is held accountable for his actions, others won't be deterred.

And in practical sense, the feds are handling the case, so any judgment can be, and likely will be tossed out.
