  1. The facts are Jon suffered a gunshot wound to the back of his right arm and one to the back of his head behind his left ear. Shooting someone in the back of the head is an execution not self defense. I hope he rots in prison for murdering my friend who opened his doors two weeks ago to help this kid out. He took away a man who spent his days helping veterans get the mental health care they deserve.
