S12 Tactical Conference: Law of Self Defense Lecture
Hey folks,
Back in October of this year I was honored to be both a sponsor and speaker at the CarryTrainer S12 tactical conference outside Nashville TN.
It was a great event--I anticipated in all instruction--and I strongly encourage you to take a look at the expert training CarryTrainer.com offers, as well as their other products and services. You can also see a great many self-defense related videos that CarryTrainer has on their YouTube channel.
CarryTrainer was kind enough to video record my lecture there, and has provided me a copy, which I'm now sharing with all of you.
Enjoy!

TAKE 2! Aaron Dean Trial: Lawyer DESTROYS State's Closing Argument
Attorney Steve Gosney destroys the closing argument of State prosecutors in the Aaron Dean murder trial, in detail and with receipts.
Find Steve's EXCELLENT book, "Ideas & Answers in Law, 2nd Ed." HERE:
https://crimelaw.net
While we continue on this second day to await the sentence-by-jury in the manslaughter conviction of Aaron Dean, I'll replay select portions of the trial, including opening statements, closing arguments, defendant's own testimony, key witnesses, and so forth.
On October 12, 2019, at 2:30AM then Ft. Worth police officer Aaron Dean responded to a call by a concerned neighbor for a welfare check on a home with the front door left open and the lights on.
While investigating around the outside of the home with a flashlight, Dean observed a person with a gun inside the home, just feet away. Dean ordered the person to drop the gun, then quickly fired a single shot. That single shot killed Atatiana Jefferson, who was in the home babysitting her 8-year-old nephew.
Within two days Dean had been charged with murder, and within four he had resigned his position as a police officer.

LIVE! Covering Cummings Trial on Rekieta Law Stream!
I wanted to give all of you a heads up--I'm covering the final closing arguments of the Dean Cummings trial today, the defense having rested yesterday afternoon, but in a different format than previously.
Nick Rekieta of Rekieta Law has kindly invited me on to his Rumble stream today to guest-host the trial proceedings, so that's where I'll be. Accordingly, you won't find me live streaming the proceedings, as previously for this trial, on my Law of Self Defense Rumble, YouTube, Twitter, or LOSD Members page. (LOSD Members should expect a playback of today's streaming as a blog post and podcast content, however, shortly after the day wraps up.)
Nick plans to start his streaming coverage of the Cummings trial at 11 AM Eastern time, with the trial itself expected to come into session at 11:30 AM. We'll likely spend the first 30 minutes prior to court commencing just doing a quick recap of the trial to date--and perhaps playing an audio-optimized version of the rifle-handling cross-examination of the defendant!
You can catch Nick and I on today's Rumble stream by clicking the image or link below:
