Surveillance video helped prove Florida man’s ‘stand your ground’ claim, attorney says

Pattrik Perez
ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. – A newly obtained video by FOX 35 News shows the moments before an August 2022 shooting that left a man dead and later led to the dismissal of a second-degree murder charge against the shooter.

The shooting happened at the Heritage Hotel on Orange Blossom Trail in south Orange County.

The video shows brothers Dylan Jimenez and Bryan Richardson walking toward the building’s breezeway. Rafael Villaverde is standing nearby.

According to court documents, Villaverde and Jimenez had a “brief verbal exchange” moments before Jimenez is seen turning around and firing.

The video confirms Jimenez was the first to fire his gun, with Villaverde returning fire shortly after.

In the judge’s dismissal letter, he wrote the state tried to argue Villaverde provoked Jimenez to shoot at him. Still, the judge wrote, “There is insufficient evidence in the record to show… this exchange somehow provoked the use of force by Mr. Jimenez against [Villaverde].”

Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) professor of forensic studies and former officer David Thomas agrees.

“When you think about ‘stand your ground,’ it’s not the before. It is the position that the person is in at that point in time if they feared for their life and if what they did was to stop an immediate attack upon them,” he said.

San Antonio park police shoots, kills man after he tried to take gun away from officer, authorities say
Officials say the man was in his late 20s and wanted on four warrants.

SAN ANTONIO — A man was shot and killed by police after he tried to take a gun away from a park police officer Sunday morning on the west side, according to SAPD Chief William McManus.

The incident occurred on the 3400 block of Buena Vista Street around 8:30 a.m. Sunday.

Chief McManus said a call for a disturbance came between a man, later identified as 27-year-old Ray Garcia, and a woman who are reportedly a couple and were at the park.

When officers arrived, Garcia ran and jumped into a backyard of a nearby neighborhood. When an officer identified as Mark DeLaCruz, caught up to him a struggle began while trying to arrest him, SAPD said.

Chief McManus said a second officer, identified as Juan Cardona, came to assist. The two officers tried to tase Garcia, but were unsuccessful. Authorities say Garcia then tried to take a gun from DeLaCruz, which is when Cardona shot and killed him, according to McManus.

Too bad the consignment shop owner wasn’t able to send at least one of the scumbags to the morgue.

In that State, he probably would be paying for their Grand kids to go to College, and definitely lose his shop.

He’s lucky they haven’t charged him with menacing those poor locals who were just trying to get Christmas presents after a long day of doing their thing for the local economy!

I hope Tiger gets himself some!

I’m starting to thing there’s brain worms making Commiefornia residents fucking retarded.
Read some comments here.

People will never face up to the reality in the who, what, why’s of criminality and will continue to side with dangerous bad people because {checks notes} no fucking good g-ddamned reason.

Next time these assholes go to rob a place, I hope Misses Clintoon’s hereunto-faux maxim resolves true: it takes a village to raise [beat the everliving FUCK out of] a child[-minded criminal fuck].

The bay area sucks big hairy monkey poxed balls, and everyone knows it.

MIRanger

Yeah,
It’s too bad Willis is not a statistitian. He could have whipped out the real studies and conclusions and not the pandered answers of late : https://www.cato.org/testimony/relationship-between-welfare-state-crime-0
Since the current studies only look to the specific cause and not the secondary or tertiary causes of the increase in the crime rates!

Nobody beat the retard out of them when they were young.

Jim iz DRT on the Orange Blossom Special.

Ray had a bad day.

Those young redistribution specialists have learned not to take a sledge hammer to a gun fight. I agree with Rod S…the store owner shoulda dropped the hammer on the punks. Tox, check the binder. Will “hammer” be in sub listings by type, ie; sledge, clawed, framing, ball peen, ect, or will it be just hammer(s)?

Our only defense as patriots is to fight back against the corruption of Joe Biden.

“FN Browning…” F*cking Nice Browning…but then again…are not all Brownings F*cking Nice? The Gun Bunny gives his Kimber Model 1911 Kustom LW a hug.

For those that are not keeping up, today’s Daily FGSs are a FRIDAY FGS, meaning that in addition to the Valor Friday Thread, we will also see the dropping of the TAH Friday Weekend Open Thread. Alas, The Gun Bunny will be away from the net on “…in addition to other duties…” and WILL NOT be a contender. So for all of those who have felt they didn’t have a chance to score a FIRST against The King of Battle, THE King of FIRST, here’s your sign. Shine up your terminal connections, dump your search history, and lube up your F5 key. Try not to bloody up the place. See y’all this evening.

So far as I know, so far “hammer” is the overall grouping, no sub-divisions yet. That may come soon.
Add: hammer to T2NB2AGF.

Tempted to apply for a tax stamp to manufacture an Any Other Weapon hammergun for a counterexample of T2B2AGF.

I’ll call it ‘The DePape Special‘.

Any device (outside of typical long guns and handguns) that fires a projectile through the use of an internal explosion can be considered an AOW. For example, a cane gun, a device that looks like a cane but can fire a small-caliber cartridge, is a type of AOW. Likewise, a wallet gun or a small-caliber gun disguised as a pen would fall under this distinction. –silencer central

The smell of orange blossoms has long ago faded from “The Trail.” Sector IV is nearly all ‘The Combat Zone’ now… not just zones 42 & 43.

Prior Service

So if I read this correctly, media will soon be describing Garcia as a POC (actually, POS but whatever), and Office DeLaCruz will be assessed as “white Hispanic” in order to present this as “yet another” instance of police brutality….

UpNorth

Yup, that’s how it will likely play out.

The video shows brothers Dylan Jimenez and Bryan Richardson walking toward the building’s breezeway…”

Only in Florida, man. Only in Florida would you find a couple of “brothers” with not only different surnames, but different ETHNIC surnames.
