Judge weighs throwing out murder charge in Center Street shooting

MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) – A judge today heard arguments over whether a murder charge against a Mobile man should be thrown out.

Corey Moorer is accused of gunning down Rodrick Woods II on Center Street in 2023.

Moorer’s attorney argued that the defendant should be immune from prosecution because he was acting in self-defense while on his own property. He says the victim came into his client’s hard wearing a ski mask and armed with a gun.

Prosecutors maintain this is not a self-defense case. They say this was a drug deal gone bad.

Mobile County Circuit Judge Vicki Davis didn’t make an immediate ruling.

Heh. Self defense is a valid response to fear of death or grievous bodily injury. There’s no carve-out for stupidity- it’ll be interesting to see which way the judge jumps.

I heartily accept the motto, “That government is best which governs least.” — HENRY DAVID THOREAU

It means the typist missed the ‘y’ on his keyboard and hit the ‘h’, just below it, instead. ::grin::

Handsome rifle. Probably more than I need for just about everything. Yet, can a man ever be over-prepared? If so it’s likely the result of living within one’s own head.
