Man says he killed 19-year-old in self-defense, video shows what happened
A man charged with second-degree murder in the shooting death of a teenager in downtown Melbourne, Florida appeared in court Thursday, where his defense team claimed additional evidence proves he acted in self-defense.
Stephan Dieujuste is accused of killing 19-year-old Nathaniel Jennings during an altercation in May.
Investigators allege that Dieujuste pulled out a handgun and fired eight times following a dispute outside local bars.
Prosecutors say Dieujuste stayed at the shooting scene and told police he fired at Jennings in self-defense after Jennings, who was unarmed, tried to start a fistfight with him.
Dieujuste claimed that Jennings had threatened him and physically placed him in a bear hug during the confrontation outside the downtown bars.

I don't know why he's in court laughing. That clearly wasn't self defense. That was a person with a gun that was too scared to fight and decide that being John Wick was more cooler and shot someone in cold blood. It probably would've been a different story if he would've ran away from the guy and shot after he was caught up to and being beaten on. I'm no judge but I don't see any self defense here. Sad๐ข
Oh, I get it. You're clickbidding the title, not showing the video, of course, because it's somebody shooting another person. But then you're also asking whether or not what you're seeing in the video is self-defense, and the end user can't really tell, but you want them to click on your video to get that engagement. Good job. ๐

Probably deserved each other
Whoever the guy in the white T is, he is the aggressor. The news should do a better job of pointing out who is who.
Wait, why does nobody have an accent? We have a "Melbourne"? Let me guess… FLORIDA?
This looks like some Florida shit.
Man, can we keep this wannabe gangster shit in the 90s? The world's got enough going on without this kinda crap holding us back!
They call him Loose Dieujuste up on the block ๐

Video doesn't show much, can't really say if this was self defense or not.
This dude is a CLOWN! Following someone and shooting 8 times is not self defense.
He's African with a gun following another African and pulled out a gun and killed him. Bring back public hangings?
