A Georgia man is using the “Stand Your Grand” law to justify the killing of a 17-year-old girl.
Marcus Wilson, a biracial man, was driving with his white girlfriend when they were accosted by a group of white teens in a truck.
The group called Wilson “n*gger” and his girlfriend a “n*gger lover” as they attempted to veer the couple off the road.
Fearing for his life, Wilson fired a warning shot, striking one of the occupants in the vehicle, 17-year-old Haley Hutchinson. Wilson was licensed to carry a firearm.
Wilson was denied bond and has been held in jail for over a year. His attorneys believe he should have never been charged, citing the controversial “Stand Your Ground Law,” which allows a person in fear of their life to use a weapon legally.
Joining us from Decatur, Georgia, is James Woodall, President of the Georgia NAACP.
