According to prosecutors, David Barajas and his sons had been driving home on the day of the incident when they ran out of fuel near their home. He then asked his two sons to get down from the car and help push it. As the boys were pushing the car, a drunk Banda crashed into the back of his car instantly crushing his sons to death. Prosecutors say an angry Barajas returned home to retrieve his gun which he then used to shoot Banda with a single gunshot to the head.
When Barajas went to court for the killing, he was found not guilty of the murder. Continue...
According to USA Today, a jury found that there was not enough evidence to convict the father and there were celebrations in court. After the verdict, Barajas said;
"I thank God. This has been hard on me and my family. A lot of weight's been lifted off my back. I'm hurt about it. It hurt me from the beginning, on top of the hurt that I was already feeling because of my sons."

Hmm, a moral dilemma. Would fewer people drunk drive if they knew they risked this level of retribution?

ReplyDeleteHe wouldn't have taken the law into his hands. by dobis112@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteHmmm lucky him
ReplyDeleteinteresting.....
ReplyDeleteBut is this justice? This man supposedly killed another man, but because of his reasons he should be freed?
ReplyDeleteMurder is murder, and he'll have to live with that and the grief of losing his sons.

A twisted and emotional case! I think he was forgiven because of her multiple loss not that he is innocent of the accusation.
ReplyDeleteThis man is a fool because his car has a fuel gauge and there is no fuel scarcity and why the hell will you tell your 2 young kids of that age to push the car, what an IDIOT!!!!!!! He should stand two counts of man-slaughter. FUCKING IDIOT!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteeyyyah! what a world, is really hard to loose a love one, thank God he is free at last.
ReplyDeletebtw 2 wrongs cannot make a right. may the soul of the departed rest in peace.

I feel for the man.
ReplyDeleteAm so happy about this. I ve been following this case & can't imagine more pain on this family. It's unfortunate that d drunk guy got to pay 4 what he did with his life. Am really happy about d verdict
ReplyDeleteBefore nko.
ReplyDeleteDats all! E.O.D
ReplyDeleteyes oo, we would have the same i trust
ReplyDeleteThe father did the right thing and God has vindicated him from going to jail. If it was naija, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! na another judgement u go dey hear.
ReplyDeletevery good,because there is always a time to kill; when a bastard rapes your child or kills your child,that is a time to kill and no sane jury would convict you.

ReplyDeleteBORN TO SHINE!!!!

I agree with the judgement. I am sure he didn't know when he did it.
ReplyDeleteThis is certainly a sad testimonial to the statement to not drink and drive.
