His victims? He was the victim. Shooting people who are robbing you (a detail you conveniently left out) is a good thing, which is why even a jury of NYC lefties acquitted him on the shooting charges. The only injustice here is that he did prison time for violating the clearly unconstitutional laws that required him to have a license for the gun.

> Each of the four youths shot by Goetz was facing a trial or hearing on criminal charges at the time of the incident. Ten weeks prior to being shot, Cabey was arrested on charges that he held up three men with a shotgun in the Bronx, and he was released on $2,000 bail.[38] Cabey failed to appear at his next court date, resulting in an additional arrest warrant.

Sounds like predators to me.

Check the civil trial transcripts, they were panhandling by multiple accounts.

> Each of the four youths .. was facing a trial or hearing on criminal charges at the time of the incident.

Minor stuff that was upgraded to a bench warrent after the shootings, ...

> Sounds like predators to me

That was how they were presented by much of the press until a good year after the first trial and Goetz's own description of his actions came out in the civile trial .. he one that awarded several million against him.

Thanks for providing a perfect foil for the comment about heavily politicized and media warped "justice" in the US.

Just minor stuff like robbing people with a shotgun. That was a nice use of the ... to hide the important part. And by their own admission they were on the way to commit more crimes. Yeah, I'm sure they were just panhandling.
