Fresno man sentenced in fatal pot garden shooting
    #14466938 - 05/17/11 08:51 AM (12 years, 8 months ago)

http://www.sacbee.com/2011/05/16/3631616/fresno-man-sentenced-in-fatal.html#ixzz1Mcal77Sz

FRESNO, Calif. -- A 41-year-old Fresno man has been sentenced to 28 years to life in prison for fatally shooting a man who tried to steal from his backyard medical-marijuana garden.

Fresno County Superior Court Judge Arlan Harrell said Monday that Phayvanh Dydouangphan apparently valued his pot more than human life, the Fresno Bee reports.

Dydouangphan, who is authorized to grow marijuana under California's medical marijuana law, admitted firing a shotgun at a group of people he caught breaking into his backyard on Sept. 8. He said he acted in self-defense because one of them pointed a gun at him.

The shotgun blast killed 40-year-old Stanley Wallace of Caruthers, who was sitting in the passenger seat of a pickup.

Dydouangphan was convicted in January of voluntary manslaughter.

The incident prompted Fresno County lawmakers to ban outdoor medical marijuana growing.

He claims that one of them pointed a gun at him.
They are on his land.
He has every right to shoot at them with his shotgun.
Marijuana shouldn't even be the issue here.

I'm guessing there was no evidence of anyone having a gun besides him, if he got sentenced to 28 years.. that's basically the rest of his life. Damn.

Yeah definitely , if someone pointed a gun @ him yeah, I skipped that part sorry, but I'm sure if SOMEONE had a gun & Pointed it @ him, the police investigation would of showed SOMETHING backing up his story, I think more of a conservative your on my land stealing so I can shoot ya type of thing going on here, JUST MY OPINION, seen it b4, but I can't say for sure. NO ONE should take the law into there own hand, unless your in immediate danger.

PLUS , if someone pointed a gun @ him, how did HE MANAGE to get his shotgun up & blast @ them? either he went back into the home, & got it, in which case he would have had the opportunity to lock himself in/ call the cops ect. or he came out from the gecko with the shotgun, ready to shoot someone.

THIS GUY gets what he deserves in a sense, he murdered someone for stealing some LEGAL pot plants. Guerilla growing for money, I've had crop rippers, conservationist, hunters all find my crops and screw me out of way more money then this guy would of lost. Where I live plants won't grow as big, the seasons short and a pound of high grade can fetch up to 4 or 5 grand. California its about half or probally way less now with everyone growing to an extent there. Seeing as he probally had a yard of tree size pot plants. If someone honestly pointed a gun at him, which I don't believe. He should and would of shot them first. But his eyes were locked to someone running away with as much as they're hands could hold. A shot in the air would sure as fuck made me drop the shit and run like forest.

This guys in prison over greed. Learn to count your even most fucked losses and move forward.

yeah im sure the police did everything in their power to prove the case of the pot grower :shrug: im glad you have such confidence in our legal system. if he did see someone with gun and the person ran off when he shot at him, there would be no way to prove the gun was there.

if you dont want to get shot dont be a fucking thief and steal from others. there was a group of people stealing from him at night, no question in my mind he did the right thing. the cops are spending too much time catching pot smokers and not enough time pursing thieves. you have to protect your own these days (weed was this mans career, it how he puts food on the table). any one who has had their house or car broken in know the cops wont do a damn thing. kudos for protecting yours mr. Phayvanh Dydouangphan and shame on you cali.

I'm not one to agree with southerners cuz I'm not a big gun rights person, but BULLSHIT!

If somebody had pointed a gun at me stealing my medicine growing in my own yard, I'd shoot more than once.

Before he lays eyes on them they are guilty of:

- Burglary
- Robbery/theft
- Trespassing
- Possession of a controlled substance (with intent to distribute possibly)
- Possession of a deadly weapon (possibly)

And theft of the guy's medicine which he has to grow himself. If he's just using the system to get weed and isn't really sick, then I can understand the ruling more. The article didn't say. If not, then why don't they just rob men in wheelchairs outright?

I'm surprised the judge didn't smoke him up.

Helps to shoot below the waist I guess.

This is the exact same post as one that happened a few months back where a French truffle farmer shot and killed a guy on his property while he was hunting for truffles.  The guy claimed to see a gun, none was ever found.


You should never be on someone else's land without permission and if you get shot and die that's your fault.

This man should NOT be in jail for defending his property.





However, like in the other thread my opinion on this matter is that if some crack head is going to steal my TV or my motorcycle or my WHATEVER I really don't give a shit enough about those material goods that aren't animated by life, to extinguish life from an individual, and human life at that.

Seems way beyond excessive but again, it should NOT be illegal and you should not go to prison for 30 years for shooting some guys that were on your property.





Juxtapose this to the police kicking your door in at 6 in the morning, lighting you up 72 times and not finding ANY drugs or illegal weapons in your house.  Guess what punishment they receive?

People who use the phrase "the law" and actually pretend like it means something are fucking retarded.

There is no such thing.
