Pointing a loaded gun at protesters is clearly a case of criminal threatening, a prosecutor told a Hillsborough County Superior Court North jury, while a defense attorney maintained pointing a gun at a dozen people coming at you is a case of self-defense.
The statements were made Monday in day one of the trial of Mark Kimball, 20, of Manchester, charged with three counts of criminal threatening for pointing a loaded 9 mm handgun at a crowd and at two individuals, Matthew Lawrence, 37, and Forrest Rapier, 32, during the May 20, 2020, Black Lives Matter protest. About 50 to 100 people had gathered outside the Manchester police station that day, after a peaceful downtown march, to talk with police about what changes could be made in the city.
