Part of the element of impartiality is not succumbing to mob rule.
What I meant was that there's not enough evidence to prove self defense right now. We do know he shot the kid during a fight, so that's manslaughter. He should be arrested for manslaughter and if evidence comes up that proves it was self defense his lawyer can bring it up in court. It's confusing to me as to why they haven't arrested him for manslaughter, especially when the self defense is still he said/he said at this moment. If they would just arrest him a happy result would be appeasing the masses, though that shouldn't be the only reason to do it.
