ANGLETON, Texas –  David Barajas denies killing a drunk driver in a fit of rage after his two sons were fatally struck in 2012 on a rural road in Southeast Texas.

His defense attorney says Barajas is a good man, a grieving father and not a murderer. At the same time, his defense hasn't publicly suggested who else might be responsible for Jose Banda's shooting death.

I say acquit David Barajas.

When does human nature trump the law ? 

Something is just not right here, both sons died as the news says in a hospital, so why was the father not tending to his injured sons instead of leaving them to go off and kill the drunken driver ?

One of the son was dead and he was in deep shock and could not think straight.
