NCAA punishes USC - Reggie Bush, OJ Mayo, Dwayne Jarrett, Joe McKnight investigation

Really?

The man who shot Joe McKnight has been released from custody and no charges have been filed yet ... this according to the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Dept.

We spoke with a rep who tells us 54-year-old Ronald Gasser -- a white male -- was questioned and released "sometime overnight" after officials believed they had no reason to hold him any longer.

The Sheriff's Dept. tells us ... Gasser "definitely" shot the ex-NFL running back -- but there are "questions about the circumstances surrounding what led up to it."

Seems Louisiana hasn't changed much since I lived there in 2004.

Stand your ground situation? Haven't followed the story.

Not sure what happened to the witness who said McKnight appeared to be trying to apologize.

Not quite sure how the stand your ground law works--do you get to kill a person just because your momentary perception was that you were threatened?

All I've really heard about is that Stand your Ground is "in play"

Not a ton of info being released so far

according to official police report, that didn't happen.
all shots were fired from inside the vehicle

Not that I know much about stand your ground, but unless they were both in the same vehicle, wouldn't stand your ground be kinda hard to point to as your defense? Again, I've followed more of the story through these posts than anything... so I could be speaking out of my ass.

seems like it.

everything on local news here so far is conflicting.
witnesses say it happened outside and they were arguing.
police say only "don't believe the news, that's not the way it happened".

so who the hell knows what actually went down.

stuff like this is becoming all too common in Nola.
it just doesn't become public unless it's someone famous.

Me: Maybe I'm taking out of my ass.

Nut: seems like it.

Thanks. :wink:

In all seriousness. I clearly don't know what happened and it sounds like a lot of people reall don't either.

What I am sure of, however, is that I'm sorry for your city that this is happening. It's a great town. I've always enjoyed myself there. Sad that there some fuck ups fucking it up for everyone.

Keep your head down man... you'd be missed.
