Thread: Discharge Without Conviction

The victim is shot with an air rifle, from the sound of it, it was not a high powered PCP type as the victim 's injury did not require no ongoing medical care, the injury was not a serious one

People have been killed by similar airguns in NZ in recent times, it could well have killed the victim. The fact that it didn't, there was premeditation, and he used a potentially deadly weapon against a person because he didn't like what came out of the victim's mouth (allegedly). Justice was not done here.
