That was a tricky one. Had he shot the guy while he was right up on him with the scissors he would have been justified. He waited a couple of seconds too long to do it and the guy had already began retreating by then. Then he went on the run and that's why the cops shot him 2 days later.

Legally with the video evidence it's not at all justified as he wasn't in a direct threat to his life when the other dude was walking away. Looks like just pulling the gun woulda been enough to defuse the situation entirely but dude wanted to go Rambo mode for no reason

What I was getting at was had he shot immediately when he drew the gun he would have been justified because the other guy was still aggressively threatening him. The gun scared the other guy off and then he went after him and became the aggressor. Dumbass should have went back in his apartment. A few years ago when there wasn't so much cctv around he probably could have got away with it with a decent lawyer.

Yeah the video evidence really cements his ass going to prison for life, but honestly without it I still don't know if he woulda got off based on the witnesses and anyone hearing that last shot knowing he straight executed the last guy, but considering this is shithole Bronx/Brooklyn maybe there coulda been a chance for a mistrial with their non existing legal system for poor people

If you pull a firearm you may get a feeling of wanting to use it to stop the situation, it's a bad instinct but could be what snagged him.
