Title: Prosecutor Says Proof's Slaying Was Justified !!!!
Post by: Damien J. on May 30, 2006, 08:54:46 PM
A Detroit-area prosecutor ruled Tuesday (May 30) that the bouncer who shot and killed Proof on April 11 acted in his cousin's defense.

Mario Etheridge was charged only with weapons violations three days after the nightclub shootout, but Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy kept murder charges a possibility, noting the investigation "was far from over".

Wat happened to proof was sad, he did something very stupid while being very drunk & cost someone there life & the only way anyone could try & stop him from doing so was to take him out. Sad But Proofs slaying was justifiable homicide & anyone who says not are blinded by the fame & the music

Murder charges will not be given to a man allegedly responsible for the recent death of D12 rapper Proof, a prosecutor ruled Tuesday (May 30).

According to Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy, Mario Etheridge shot and killed Proof in an act of self-defense.

In May, authorities charged the 28-year-old with carrying a concealed weapon without a permit as well as firing two shots in the air inside a building.

Although Etheridge was not charged in the killing, he is scheduled to appear in court Friday (June 2) for a final meeting on the other two charges.

Etheridge's avoidance of the murder charge is the newest development in the aftermath following the death of Proof and Etheridges' cousin, Keith Bender, 35.

The rapper and Bender died around 4:30 a.m. April 11 following a heated argument the two had at the C.C.C. Club on 8 Mile Road.

In a timeline of the events released Tuesday, prosecutors revealed that Etheridge and another man intervened in the argument.

The timeline further stated that Bender threw the first punch after Proof asked Bender to take the argument outside, according to the Detroit Free Press, and that the rapper got a gun from another man soon after going outside.

Bender's family filed a wrongful death lawsuit in May against Proof's estate, claiming the Detroit lyricist "violently assaulted and battered [Bender], culminating with the infection of a gunshot injury that caused the death of Mr. Bender."

Im not arguing anything anyones said, but the bouncer proof killed, pulled his gun first during the confrontation so proofs actions were justified as well, as far as i can tell, but then again we werent there so we have no idea....its just a series of unfortunate events

your an idiot man....hes not sayin the act wasnt justified, hes sayin that death in anyway shouldnt be looked at as justified cause its death. People make mistakes, and usually you get to look at your mistake and learn from it and grow as a person but in proofs case he made a mistake but since he was killed he cant learn from his mistake its just final...so an act like this may be justified but death shouldnt be.

Of course the defensive act was justified - but it still doesn't make it right to kill a man. Two men died in vain 'cause of that night.

I didn't say what Proof did was right I SAID sayin a person's death is justified is wrong.

No, you're just fucked up.  He was in the process of killing somebody.  YES, his death was justified.  If somebody's murdering ONE OF YOUR FUCKING FAMILY MEMBERS in front of you, You have the justified right to KILL THEM. 

If you were murdering my brother in front of me, I WOULD KILL YOU.  BELIEVE THAT.

You are not a man.  You don't even have the testosterone that a woman does.  A dog, a Lion, a Tiger, and a Bear would kill anything that tried to harm it's family or it's children.  You wouldn't.  Any woman would even kill anything that was killing one of their children.  Your children would be better off born to a wild pack of coyotes, because at least then they'd have protection.  Maybe you'll grow up later in life; but right now, please never call yourself a man, it makes real men like me who would take care of their families, their wives, and their children look like something less than that.

If my brother was killing somebody, and their cousin ran up and killed him trying to save his cousins life, then my brother's death would be JUSTIFIED.
