^^^no he is pretty much fckd in this situation....I only brought to light the facts so that the majority of you will give jesse a bit of a break in the harsh words being spoken about him by none of you who even know him. This absolutely was a freak accident in which he did not intend for dan to recieve the results he was given. The back 50’r was punched in the face by Dan and Dan then threw his board into the street which heightened everyones reactions
I don't see a board getting thrown into the street or him throwing the first punch in the extended security footage that was on the NBC news twitter. It appears he grabs the guys board after he continued to skate the ledges and move the barricades.
While, no one planned for this guy to be in this position, legally, he seems fucked. They were trespassing, asked to leave, they continued to move barricades set-up to stop them from skating, a security guy grabs a board after a bunch of provocation and ends up in a coma.
I mean, staying around for one more try, and shit may seem normalized for a skater. But, to 12 citizens who show up for jury duty? It just seems like a bunch of punks escalating a conflict, which led to a terrible result.
