A jury has found a man not guilty in a shooting incident with a YouTube
prankster who followed him around a mall food court, according to the
Associated Press.

On Thursday, Alan Colie was acquitted of aggravated malicious wounding in
the shooting of Tanner Cook, however, he was convicted of firing a gun
inside the mall. Colie had pleaded not guilty and claimed he shot Cook in
self-defense.

The guilty verdict was put aside until October 19 after Colie's defense
attorney, Adam Pouilliard, said the conviction was inconsistent with the
law, especially when he was acquitted on the grounds of self-defense. A
judge will hear arguments on the conviction, and Colie will remain
incarcerated.

Jurors were shown footage of Cook getting shot that was recorded by one of
his friends helping him film a prank. The interaction took 30 seconds and
showed Cook holding a phone and approaching Colie, who was picking up a
delivery.

Cook held his phone by Colie's ear while playing a phrase out loud four
times on Google Translate. Colie asked Cook to stop three different times
and backed away before the prankster continued following him.

Eventually, Colie pulled out a firearm and shot Cook in his lower left
chest. Pouillard claimed his client "walked into the mall to do his job
with no intention of interacting with Tanner Cook. None."

However, the prosecution claimed the facts of the case do not support a
self-defense argument. According to state law, Colie needed to have
reasonable fear that his life was in imminent danger, and that he use no
more force than is necessary. Holmes claimed Cook's prank wasn't
threatening enough to warrant he be shot.

"They were playing a silly phrase on a phone," she said. "How could the
defendant have found that he was reasonably in fear of imminent bodily
harm?"

The case became popular because of Cook's YouTube channel, Classified
Goons, which has more than 50,000 subscribers, and the prankster himself
reportedly makes $3,000 a month.

Based on what I know, which I openly admit isn't as much as the
jury, I don't see how the jury reached this verdict. But they did, and
there is no more to do with that charge.

But he did fire the weapon in the mall. That's a separate charge
for which the jury concluded he was proved, BARD, to be guilty.

This is why the verdict confuses me. I've seen part of the video,
and I didn't see anything that would suggest imminent danger to
himself, or others.
There must be something in the remainder of the video that wasn't
made public. That's the sole reason I can think of as to why self
defense was justified.

I hope the guy learned a lesson. Use care in what pranks you
play, and against those whom you prank.

Some choose to just keep playing silly games....
Even after being told "Stop" three times.

Frankly I love the judgment.. Idiots should learn there are boundaries they
have to respect.

We need to shoot more such pranksters. Maybe when it gets a reputation as a dangerous
practice they'll stop annoying people.

These men are so-called first amendment auditors. What they do is set up
at a government building or private company. Then they anonymously call
911 to report a suspicious man and the police come. Then they go into
their routine about OPPRESSION by the police. They then post that video on
youtube.com and it get's monetized by Google. Then they repeat the same
act in a few weeks to keep the revenue coming in.

You can do a search on youtube.com for "first amendment audit" to find the
fools.
