partner and his closing argument, a clear case of self-defense. in his place again, a reasonable fear of intimate danger, or threat by the actions of the occupant, in the other vehicle. on the road when they were shooting at him. and then when they turned, in the meadow, and came back at him. self-defense? or murder? to wait for jury s decision is in kind of agony, for both sides. roy maguire s that still struggling with an inexplicable anger. the justice system can t give him what i feel he has coming. no amount of jail time, will fix it. those sweet said innocent little kids. like that he was funny and he s always loving, he protects us a lot, and okay. and the mission?
is the dirt road where the shooting took place. such replace so remote without those directions they might never have found them. as they drove through the night, they listen to the chatter on the two-way. it was very chaotic. nobody knew exactly what was happening, nobody knew if there was multiple people shooting at each other. if it was two people shooting at each other. it s always conflicting reports coming over the radio. it s really scary. he and the word and we re now joined by a total of three deputies. the team convoy to the meadow. geared up for a possible shootout. they found a loan vehicle, its windows blown out. i want you to. standup. stand up he shot this footage of the encounter. which later became part of the official public record. right away there s two guys coming towards with their hands up, one guys limping very bad. he was shot through the leg. they re both bloodying cut up. they both look really freaked out, then he saw something strange, poking out
and i don t need to kill kids in my state. then the detective decided to take chat of a tour, to recreate the almost eight mile chase, and the shooting. on location. and on videotape. we drove, from his cabin, in my vehicle. and videotaping. and he took us right back here, to the metro here. about here, in that stretch, is when i saw him shooting at me. right back in. here and we cut back in here, and it s when i fired. when he was cutting back this? weigh in this corner? we hear yes. chad made it quite clear used a small pistol, three 80 caliber, to return fire during the chase. he told us he knew exactly where he shot from. so i d get out and i m mark that area so we could go back and search that area for casings. then the cops took chant down that dirt, road which led into the meadow. and there they can plainly see,
the other officers had already marked several showcasing s in the meadow. and abruptly, chad story changed. i had spent many hours with him that night, questioning him, asking him if any other firearms and venues. demi continually said no. then at the very end of the interview, and the, drive that he finally did tell us that there is another gun used. that s when he saw on the ground as they all, did 2 to 3 caliber casings, the kind they would come from an ar-15 assault rifle. which chad finally admitted that he used, here in the metro. and prior to that, had you shot that and any other time? some, not that i recall. no. okay. but then, his story changed again, he admitted he fired the ar-15, just before he got to the metal. . how about behind? us when you shouted them coming off the dirt road.
and so gory. what s happened here? sorting it out fell to detective steve bay and chris hendrickson. it is very confusing for all the officers responding. they were all under the impression that the suspects were in the meadow. in the car. and maybe armed, and officers treated them as such. adding to the confusion, the remote location, multiple occasions. two gentlemen at the campground. we have four gentlemen down at the potential crime scene. and then we have this man with another detective in another. stop officers, ambulances. helicopters coming, it s very chaotic. very chaotic that night deputies led by sergeant pay met a few miles from the meadow. and they listen to his account of the chase. they started sign in the spotlight back at me. in the next thing i know, there s all these muzzle flashes. do you think they were firing on? yeah yes they were firing back at. me but well sergeant i was talking to chad, some of the other detectives were out here in the middle
