A 16 year old Price Hill boy says he was accidentally shot in the foot by a man on Wednesday night-now that man faces charges.

The boy was hit by the bullet at a home in the 1200 block of Dewey Avenue around 8:30 p.m.  He drove himself to Good Samaritan Hospital for treatment, according to the police report.

Officers later charged the homeowner, 47 year old Burneill Mooney, with negligent assault.

Detectives have not said exactly how the shooting happened.

Yep ,it isnt just the cops, prosecutors, and judges that dicriminate ,and apply a double standard against men,it is also the legislature. We live in a matriarchy.

Navrat read the Ohio revised Code for Negligent Assault 2903.14. "No person shall negligently, by means of a deadly weapon or dangerous ordnance as defined in section 2923.11 of the Revised Code, cause physical harm to another or to another’s unborn." It fits the elements of the crime. Its the police officer's job to charge if it meets the elements of the crime, its the prosecutor's job to determine intent and if it should go forward in court. He was charged appropriately. Besides, all you know of the case is what the news story says.

How can he be charged without intent? He gets charged when he accidently shoots a 16 year old boy in the foot. Yet a white woman with a masters degree cant be charged for causing the death of her baby by leaving it in a Mercedes crock pot,because there was no intent.
