The man, Hugo Goetz, was mugged 4 years ago. At the time, he said words to the effect of "Never Again!" The Asst. Atty. General of New Hampshire (where Our Hero hid) has been said that Goetz's comment could be construed as PREMEDITATION. On the subway, what happened (according to the Comical) was this: The four "punks" asked Our Hero for a match, they then asked him for $5 to play pinball, Our Hero then shot them. The NYC Chief of Police said he stopped shotting when he ran out of bullets! Not only that, but the famous sharpened screwdrivers? They WERE IN THE KIDS POCKETS!!! NOT THIER HANDS!! They were never brandished! So, it should be a VERY interestin trial. The bail money for Goetz has been flowing in from New Yorkers. Personally, I do not think a jury of peers (New Yorkers) would convict the man.
