Despite claims of innocence, shooter Michael David Dunn still got charged with murder Wednesday (November 28).
The man accused of shooting a 17-year-old Wolfson High School student to death Friday night at a gas station during an argument over loud music waived his first court appearance in Jacksonville Wednesday. But while Michael David Dunn wasn't in court, the 45-year-old Melbourne man's attorneys were as he was officially charged with second-degree murder in the shooting death of Jordan Russell Davis. Dunn's attorney, Robin Lemonidis of Melbourne, stated her client "absolutely" saw someone with a shotgun in the red sport-utility vehicle next to his car at the convenience store that night. (The Florida Times-Union)A local authority has addressed the crime and agreed Dunn is at fault.
"It was loud," Jacksonville homicide Lt. Rob Schoonover said of the teens' music. "They admitted that. That's not a reason for someone to open fire." After an exchange of words, Dunn began shooting with a handgun, Schoonover said. "Nobody else in that vehicle was struck; it was just our victim [Davis], which was lucky because the vehicle was shot eight or nine times," Schoonover said.(NBC News)
