Motorcycle shop boss shot with crossbow

As I said earlier "And if they've accepted that, I wonder if they've discounted (or been told to discount) the claim that Miller said those words? Or possibly that they've accepted them as a warning, rather than final words before firing the bolt?"

Further wondering is if they have to discount the words, if the wife and kid did not hear them? Then it would be one man's word against another, so cannot be proven and so not admissible evidence?

Two years and three months... Shite all really.

I might've missed it (speed reading) but wouldn't the fact he was carrying the crossbow be an offence really?

Those guys need to be locked up and have the key thrown away! Wait, did I hear anyone say capital punishment...?

I'm still going for the whole idea of inventing a punishment system that goes along the lines of what you do gets done back to you...

Steal a car, have your car (or something worth about the same) taken off you in compensation. Murder, be murdered in the same fashion. Etc, etc. Shoot someone with a crossbow, get shot with a crossbow.
