Constitutional Law

KingCast presents: Bill Christy is not a liar; I hope he's happy now.

By Christopher King

If the State or the town of Franconia had conducted any investigation into the propriety of the stop - or lack thereof - it would have shown that Liko was placed in fear by McKay's actions.

Also, Liko's car only struck McKay AFTER Floyd started shooting at him, as his son noted in the interview transcripts.

From "Try Gregory Floyd for Murder."

Dear Statesmen,
I write to you to ask you to please read what is before you and not let this injustice continue any longer. This concerns each and every citizen of the State of New Hampshire, including yourselves.

The definition of Murder
To kill with premeditated malice; to kill (a human being)
willfully, deliberately, and unlawfully.

If you have read the FRANCONIA/AYOTTE report, you have definitely read sworn statements that substantiate the assertion that Mr. Floyd did not address the victim Liko Kenney before slaughtering him with one .45 bullet to the neck area and one .45 cal bullet to the head, both fired at close range. There is the still unexplained "first shot" from Cpl McKay's service weapon windshield bullet hole identified by NH evidence tag # 8 on Liko Kenney's car.

The unarmed passenger Caleb Macaulay is another victim of this tragic event. He stated during his interrogation "Floyd had the gun pointed at us before we even got on the road." The NHAG apparently ignored this claim made by Caleb in his statement. The NHAG has seen the same pictures you will see, including the NHSPPL evidence tag # 8 of the "first shot" inward bullet hole.

"You have further read the sworn statements of the shooter Gregory W. Floyd. He clearly saw that the victim's gun was jammed and inoperable, (it was still jammed when the shooter removed it from Liko's lifeless hands).
The shooter then destroyed key state evidence by clearing the jammed round from the victim's firearm NHSPPL evidence tag #14, and placing the bullet in his pocket (recovered several days later by NH State Troopers from the shooter.)

The definition above says premeditated, willfully, deliberately and unlawfully.
I believe you will arrive at the same conclusion we did. The statements by the shooter himself clearly demonstrate he more than fulfills 3 criteria of the meaning premeditation, willfulness, and with deliberate action beyond all reasonable doubt.

The key factor is did Mr. Floyd have any options other than the actions he chose when he slaughtered Liko Kenney without saying a word.

The definition of Murder:
To kill with premeditated malice; to kill (a human being)
willfully, deliberately, and unlawfully.

What Liko Kenney did appears wrong, but we know from Caleb Macaulay's contemporaneous statements that he was genuinely in fear of Bruce McKay, which most likely renders his act no more than manslaughter.

What Gregory W. Floyd did was just as wrong and no less heinous when he slaughtered Liko Kenney. He was not enraged, or in fear for his life, yet with premeditation Gregory W. Floyd murdered Liko Kenney.

Two wrongs don't make a right, certainly not in this case. The decision made by NHAG Ayotte was done using the competing harms law. The burden of proof is on Gregory W. Floyd to prove beyond all reasonable doubt that he was in fear for his life and/or the life of the officer who had been shot. Mr. Floyd NEVER stated he was in fear for his life.
