Man, 76, convicted of capital murder for killing his neighbors after they threw dog feces on his porch repeatedly for months
76 year old Chung Kim fatally shot his neighbors Michelle Jackson, 31, and Jamie Stafford, 31, because dog feces ‘dripped onto his balcony’
Jackson and Stafford just had a baby before they were murdered and Jackson had four children from another relationship
Kim, through the use of an interpreter, asked to re-tell his side of the story and requested a new attorney
Kim claims he shot in self-defense and accused his neighbors of pulling a gun on him
A 76-year-old Dallas, Texas man was convicted of capital murder on Thursday in the shooting deaths of his neighbors last year because of a months-long feud about their dog’s feces on his porch.
A jury found that Chung Kim fatally shot his neighbor Michelle Jackson, 31, on February 4, as she stood on her balcony above his apartment. Kim then went upstairs to her residence and shot and killed her boyfriend, Jamie Stafford, 31
He claims he used martial arts to wrestle the gun out of Stafford’s hands.
‘Before he pull trigger, I got him!’ Kim told CBS from his jail cell.
‘I hit him in his gun. And pushed his arm. And, I take his gun. And with my elbow knock him down,’ he continued.
This sounds pretty delusional. My guess is the old man is slipping into senility.

Shooting Stafford with his own gun is anti-climactic after that dazzling display of martial artistry… He could’ve honked his nose or something.
I have to ask that you bear in mind that is a link to the daily mail’s website. The daily mail, the newspaper that’s a byword for media distortion in this country? Please?
