This dangerous man is free and living in the general public?
This man, Eric Popper, apparently thought it was a good idea to keep a gun in his car, engage in a road-rage incident, take out his semi-automatic pistol, and set up a situation where he could shoot someone. Then he claimed self-defense, which anyone can plainly see is nonsense.
According to media reports, this shooting took place on June 21, 2021. Then, there was a flurry of reporting in February 2022 when the video was released by police and viewed millions of times by the public.
At that time, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, FOX and others all reported on the story.
From what we can tell, Mr. Popper is free on bond. He is due in court on April 28, 2022, nearly a year later.
Now, it’s nearly one year later and there is no follow-up reporting.
We have some questions we’d like to discuss
CRIME AND PREVENTION
How could you release this man on bond? He clearly demonstrated that he is completely willing to use lethal force against unarmed people. Didn’t he break literally dozens of laws, including state and federal gun laws, assault, traffic laws, etc.? (DISCUSS)NEWS AND MEDIA
Whatever happened to the clearly-a-violent-threat-to-society, Mr. Popper?
What is your obligation to follow-up, on this and so many other stories you whip up, media? (DISCUSS)
