Donald Pettit Killed In Road Rage Incident

No child should ever have to witness their parents murder. What’s worse is why this poor guy died – over a fucking parking spot of all things! I hope they catch the asshole who did this soon. I watched a heartbreaking press conference this morning where the Donald’s widow spoke. They were married for 18 years and have 2 daughters together. The poor woman was so distraught she could barely talk. I feel so bad for this family. I hope justice is swift and the asshat responsible is caught very soon.

Damn I’m not a betting kind of person. But I would bet that they will have this guy in custody pretty quickly.

Whoever did this is fucked.

Ya think? He is SERIOUSLY fucked. I bet 20 bucks they’ll find him by the end of the week.

They have a person of interest in custody….

I’ve gotten pretty pissed about traffic, and I’ve done some questionable things as a result. But, even as a gun owner, shooting another driver has never crossed my mind.

But people get irrationally angry over shit like parking spots. I had some hoodrat try to fight me over a parking spot once. Actually, not over the spot itself, but over a “big word” I used when I was offering to move my car. I was trying to make her look “ign’ant”, apparently.

Why can’t the world be like a comic book? This little girl would grow up to have some awesome superpower and avenge her dad’s death. That’s how things should work.

May I personally volunteer to hunt this worthless PIECE OF SHIT down and then donate the reward to his family!

In case you guys didn’t know, there is some controversy brewing locally about this. It has been discovered that this was indeed the result of road rage, and that the victim was the one who followed the suspect into the parking lot (someone I heard on the radio pointed out that they knew this from the way the agent’s car was parked erratically). So a lot of people are stating that the suspect might have shot in self defense, and that the agent was wrong for following the guy in there after arguing with him on the road, especially with his little girl in the car. However, police are speculating that Pettit might have followed the guy in there acting as an officer, meaning he was going to arrest the guy for driving erratically or whatever it was that happened on the road. Regardless, most people agree that this guy had no right to shoot the victim.

Also, it has been reported that the suspect dyed his hair black and rented a car in order to keep from being identified.

wow Angel that does make sense… The shooter in disguise – spells g·u·i·l·t·y. That just makes me 10 times more Happy that he got caught

The local controversy has exploded and then grown absolutely dead quiet. It seems that the ‘Officer” was a polygraph operator and not any kind of cop. In addition, the older gentleman (sick and old – he was on his way to kidney dialysis) pulled off the road after the energetic give and take of a road rage incident. The ‘agent’ passed the parking lot where Mr. Wonder pulled in and then came back to escalate the situation instead of just moving along as he should have done. It appears that he threatened the older gentleman and may have told him that he had a gun in his car. (which he did) As he turned, he was shot in what appears to be self-defense. The ‘feds’ are claiming that the ‘agent’ was ‘on duty’ (that is, in HIS OWN car, NOT in any kind of uniform and WITH his 12 year old daughter) so that his family can get the $300,000.00 death benefit from the government. As soon as people started to hear the actual truth of the incident, the news stopped suddenly and nothing has been written the last 2 or three days. It became apparent to most south Floridians that the ‘agent’ was deeply involved in the road rage incident and actually did follow the older man into the parking lot and did get out of his car to confront him. It appears that the ‘agent’ was the aggressor after all.

So… what you’re saying is that it was okay for James Wonder to shoot a man at close range, who was not pointing a weapon at him, in front of his daughter?
A federal agent is a federal agent. Many of them do things other than “cop” work – in fact, federal agents are not police officers, that’s why they’re called federal agents. Donald Pettit worked for US Customs and Border Patrol.
Why does this man’s occupation make a difference to you? He’s still dead, his child will have to live with the trauma of seeing him shot and dying, blood spilling all over the pavement, at the hands of James Wonder. There is no excuse, ever, for shooting a man in front of his child.
My parents are in their sixties and neither of them is old and feeble, and one of them is ill. Age and illness would never make it okay for my parent to shoot a man, and in fact, my parents wouldn’t even have a gun in the car or on their persons with which to do the shooting. This guy was ready for a confrontation before he ever got in one, and he was not shot or hurt in any way by Pettit. Self-defense won’t work for this one.
It’s not self-defense when you shoot a man who is not attacking you or holding a gun. Verbal altercations do not make murder okay. What is your connection to this case?

In answer…
I do not, in any way, believe that Mr. Wonder should have shot Pettit. I was just trying to fill in information that was, at first, missing. I think it is positively horrible that Pettit’s daughter saw, and will never forget, what happened to her father. But, please remember that Pettit chose to escalate this incident, fully knowing that his daughter WAS in the car. There is no reason to think that Wonder knew she was there. However, Pettit DID know. When he followed Mr. Wonder into the parking lot and got out of his car, he should have known better. If he was an ‘agent’, he had no official business with Mr. Wonder (as he was not a cop) and could not cite or otherwise discipline Mr. Wonder. He got out of his car when he should have kept driving and let the incident die. Instead, he did. I do not believe that the penalty for road rage should be death – maybe just for stupidity.
I have no direct connection to this case, I just live in the area. Do you live in Florida? We have a law here that has been coined the ‘Stand your Ground’ law. A person is legally allowed to use deadly force against someone attacking or threatening them in any way and is NOT obligated to try to get away instead. We can now use deadly force to protect our home and belongings. Yea, I know…I’m not real happy about that either.
But…the problem with the law enforcement telling the public he was on duty has been that it was obvious that he WASN”T on duty and he was acting in a dangerous and irresponsible way – especially with his daughter in the car. I’m sure she spent the last five or ten minutes of her father’s life begging him to stop fighting with the man in the other car. These things scare kids!! The general feeling is that the man’s family is not entitled to a ‘reward’ of the $300,000.00 death benefit because not only was he obviously not on duty, he was obviously in the WRONG.
Remember, Pettit had a gun too, he just didn’t get to it fast enough.
