2 Security Guards Face Murder Charges After Shooting Outside Dallas Strip Club
So early New Years morning, a man became the first murder of 2019 in Dallas when he was shot multiple times by security in the parking lot of a Dallas strip club. From the article:
"Investigators determined an argument, involving a 34-year-old man, had gotten the attention of several unarmed and armed security officers. When the guards, who worked at the neighboring nightclub, attempted to stop the victim from leaving he ignored their commands and proceeded to try and drive away. The guards then opened fire and shot the victim several times"
There is footage of the shooting that captures the whole incident -- apparently the man was involved in a fight where he knocked someone out, he was attempting to leave when security arrived. It has also been reported that one of the security guards is a convicted felon, serving time in prison in 2010 for a burglary...My question is, if these were police officers, I highly doubt they would have been charged so quickly if at all - the officers could have just simply said they feared for their lives and shot the victim. After watching this video, do you feel these security guards should have been charged?
