Since They Didn't Shoot Him, I'm Guessing Justin Stasney Is White

Justin Stasney might have had a good reason for not responding to officers who surrounded his home. He was asleep in a recliner when the SWAT team found him after a four-hour standoff, authorities said. . . .

Officers surrounding the home first heard breaking glass and other noise, but then heard nothing from Stasney despite making calls on a telephone they were able to get into the house and talking to him over a patrol car's loudspeaker, authorities said.

A second SWAT team went around the back of the house after about four hours and saw Stasney asleep in a chair, Jenkins said.

Officers entered stealthily and woke Stasney up to arrest him. He's been charged with discharging a firearm into a residence, but could face additional charges, Jenkins said.


What additional charges are they going to bring against him? felonious glass breaking? criminal neglect of a ringing phone with intent to sleep? slumbrous congress with a LaZ Boy recliner? keeping a Southern police force out of Krispy Kreme for 4 hours while the "Hot Doughnuts Now" light is on? What?

I can't wait to see what they dig up for this.

In addition to keeping them from their doughnuts, which in some states is a felony, he could be charged with willfully squandering four hours of the SWAT team's time, preventing them from watching COPS to get tips on how to act on camera. They might also make him pay for what it took to keep the cops at his house.
