(if) I did it - Confession from the killer - 09/30/07 10:43 PM
I just read this book: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/If_I_Did_It
A pretty disturbing read.
as the attack pertains to self-defense itself...
I'll paraphrase describe the SD scenaro for sake of brevity.
a narrow walkway. a closed metal gate behind you. fairly thick foliage on both sides of the walkway. in front of you is a 6'2" ex-pro football player wearing gloves and holding a knife, just a few feet in front of you.
His 'wife' is laying on the other side of the walkway near the house door, unconscious. He's automatically (and erroneously) accusing you of being there to screw his 'wife'. He's taunting you to attack him, and you are trying to defuse the escallation. He's enraged. The blind, wild-eyed, out his mind, kind of enragement.
what can you do? you can't run behind you to the gate and open it without getting attacked in the back. you can't go around him to the house door. The foliage/growth along the path is a thick dead end.
a f'ed situation.
