This person gives "self defense" a bad name. He shot a unarmed, unconscious man 5 times in the stomach after retrieving a 2nd gun. What an idiot. Glad he got a long sentence.
The initial shoot was 100% valid. The follow up shoot was 100% murder.
But there are many groups defending what he did. Unbelievable.
I am pro-ccw and pro self defense, but no doubt this was murder.

==================

An Oklahoma pharmacist has been sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole for first-degree murder in the shooting death of a teenager who tried to rob the south Oklahoma City pharmacy where he worked.

Fifty-nine-year-old Jerome Ersland was sentenced Monday after Oklahoma County District Judge Ray Elliott rejected a defense motion to suspend the sentence.

Ersland had no reaction and said nothing as the sentence was handed down. As he left the courtroom, he responded to a reporter's shouted question by calling the sentence "An injustice of a monumental proportion."

A jury convicted Ersland and recommended the life with the possibility of parole sentence for the may 2009 shooting of 16-year-old Antwun Parker.

Defense Attorney Irven Box said the conviction and sentence will be appealed.
