Kidnapping, Murder, and Domestic Disputes
At lunch just now I tuned into TruTV’s coverage of the Michael King murder trial in time to hear King’s cousin testify that he heard a woman’s voice emanating from King’s car and saying, “Call the cops.” The cousin’s first response, he said, was to think it was “a domestic” dispute – “a girlfriend.” When he looked again at King’s car, his cousin saw a woman’s silhouette in the vehicle and saw King push the figure down.
I have only one comment: This is what is wrong with the way American law deals with domestic violence.
