" I saw a short piece of video of Mr. Dunn on the stand where he was being asked about what happened and I was amazed to see the hatred on his face and his words were "you're not going to kill me, you son of a b......", and he actually made the motion of pulling out his gun and shooting - right there in the witness box."
You can bet the farm that Dunn's lawyer advised him and rehearsed to do just that and with the same facial expression. This would give the jury the feeling that Dunn was under extreme pressure and that the shooting was justified.
Lawyers have phychological experts prep the clients and witnesses in exactly how to testify for the benefit of their best effort in front of a jury.
Murder? Most likely. Rest of life very uncomfortably behind bars. Very likely. Complete justice? No. Enough justice. Probably.
