But to stay and beat the man to DEATH over it?

I dunno, that's a tough one to swallow. Maybe if the knife was in the guys hand when they found the body. Smith had a right to defend himself in his own home when 3 presumably large college football players show up at his door, let me also point out.

Maybe they shoulda gone after manslaughter instead.

Frustrated this guy got off.
