A little faith in the Grand Jury system restored by recognizing the defense of others right and placing blame where it belonged.
Not sure about shooting at him while driving away, but the Grand Jury thought it was OK. Perhaps with the view that he believed he was stopping a rapist from hurting someone else?

FORT WORTH, Texas -- A husband who killed his wife's alleged lover after finding them together escaped a murder charge from a grand jury, which instead indicted the wife for causing the shooting by claiming she was being raped.
Tracy Roberson, 35, was charged Thursday with manslaughter in the death of Devin LaSalle, who police said Roberson invited to her suburban Arlington house in December with a text message that read, "Hi friend, come see me please! I need to feel your warm embrace!"
But prosecutors said when Darrell Roberson arrived home from a card game in Dallas and found his wife -- clad in only a robe and underwear -- with LaSalle outside in a pickup truck, Tracy Roberson told her husband she was being raped.
Police said Darrell Roberson fired four shots as LaSalle tried to drive away, with one striking him in the head.
A Tarrant County grand jury declined to indict Darrell Roberson, 38, on a murder charge.
Tracy Roberson, 35, faces two to 20 years if convicted.
