The hero customer who shot and killed an armed robber at a Houston taco joint last week has been ordered to face a grand jury by District Attorney Kim Ogg, the Soros-funded prosecutor who appears to have let the career criminal he put down out on bond.
WATCH:
A grand jury will decide whether an armed taqueria customer, who shot and killed a robber last week in southwest Houston and is now being hailed a hero, will be criminally charged.
Investigators said the 46-year-old customer, who police have not identified because he’s not under arrest, turned himself in and is cooperating with detectives.
Fortunately, our hero hired an attorney to defend himself and exercised his right to remain silent.
His lawyer put out the following statement:
“My client, who wishes to remain anonymous, was dining with a friend at El Ranchito Taqueria and as it has been seen on video, a robbery suspect entered the restaurant, and pointed a weapon at my client and the other customers demanding money. In fear of his life and his friend’s life my client acted to protect everyone in the restaurant.
In Texas, a shooting is justified in self-defense, defense of others and in defense of property. The customer has met with the Harris County District Attorney’s Office and Investigators with HPD homicide. He fully intends to continue cooperating with the ongoing investigation.
When the investigation is complete, this case will be presented to a Grand Jury. We are confident that a Grand Jury will conclude that the shooting was justified under Texas Law. This event has been very traumatic, taking a human life is something he does not take lightly and will burden him for the rest of his life. For that reason, he wishes to remain anonymous. Due to the overwhelming coverage, we ask the media and the public to respect his privacy.”
The thug he shot was a career criminal who should have been locked up in prison, KTRK reports:
On Monday, the medical examiner identified 30-year-old Eric Eugene Washington as the robbery suspect who was killed.
Records show Washington had an extensive criminal history and was out on bond during the would-be robbery.
Records show that in 2015, Washington was convicted on a lesser charge of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon and sentenced to 15 years in prison in connection to the shooting death of 62-year-old Hamid Waraich, a cell phone store owner. Houston police also charged two other men.
According to records, Washington was released on parole in 2021 and charged with assaulting his girlfriend in December 2022.
Waraich had a fiancée and three sons who reacted strongly when contacted by ABC13.
“If the guy who sopped Eric was around 10 years ago, maybe I’d still have my dad,” Aman Waraich, the son of the store clerk that was killed, said.
“Eric was an evil criminal that took joy in harassing and robbing innocent families. The individual at the taqueria is a true hero!” Sean Waraich, the victim’s other son, added. “He did the right thing in stopping the robber and in protecting the community from a dangerous perpetrator.”
WATCH:
Our hero never would have even been put in this position if Kim Ogg actually locked criminals up rather than kneel before them.
This is a clear-cut case of self-defense but you never know how a jury will rule in the Black Lives Matter era.

Like I said earlier. They will charge him with murder because he killed the demographic that can do no wrong.
GOOD RIDDANCE. Sadly, we need more of this.
Meanwhile back in OZ…..
The munchkins are singing:
“Ding-dong! The Crip is dead
Which old Crip? The Wicked Crip!
Ding-dong! The Wicked Crip is dead
Wake up you sleepy head, rub your eyes, get out of bed
Wake up, the Wicked Crip is dead
He’s gone where the nigglins go
Below, below, below
Yo-ho, let’s open up and sing and ring the bells out
Ding-dong’s the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low
Let them know the Wicked Crip is dead!”
On a serious note,
The guy who shot the armed robber should be exalted as a hero. Not persecuted for doing what was right in that situation.

He was 51. They never grow up or calm down. Some people just need killing. The police should reimburse the good woman her bullets and thank her for her service.
It’s the Soreass-funded DA who should be up on charges and put in jail. Better yet, just hang him and save the taxpayers some money.
Gingrich helps create this stuff with Soro$bucks:
EXCERPT:
Next, Soros needed his shill. And you’re gonna love this part, because it’s one of those things you’re not supposed to remember.
Can you guess his conservative whore of choice?
Newt Gingrich.
Okay, I can hear you now. “Dave, that’s absurd! Newt is Soros’ self-declared number-one foe! This is the guy who was shut down on Harris Faulkner in September for daring to go after Soros. Newt’s whole thing is ‘Soros is evil!’”
Uh-huh. And in 2014 he came to L.A. to intervene on Soros’ behalf for Prop. 47, penning an op-ed for The L.A. Times extolling the measure’s benefits, and partnering with Van Jones (yes, far-left hate-whitey Van Jones) for a pro-47 media tour. The Sacramento Bee called Soros the “sugar daddy” behind the Prop. 47 blitz, and The L.A. Times (in a surprisingly honest piece) outlined how Soros was funding the campaign through visible and “less visible” (i.e., devious) means.

Hang the treasonous, venal RINOs.
Abolish the state.
That rat bastard Gingrich is the asshole who made the current model for corrupt House leadership still followed by both parties. He has always been an immoral snake.
The Contract ON America, 1994 GOP “revolution”.
Meaning RINOs, DV dope.
The Contract was real, but it was Newt who was responsible for sabotaging it, killing it, and then punishing the people who tried to enact it.
The effects of that betrayal are still being felt in American politics.
They ALL are. It would be easier to list the ones that aren’t immoral snakes or liars.
I’ll start it off.
1.)
jim jordan, he’s the best next would be trey goudy
Sean Hannity likes ole Newt.
Different subject, I sometimes question why the “conservative” talking heads don’t run for office. Sean Hannity, Screamin’ Mark Levin, Dennis Prager (not listened to him in a couple years praise the Lord), don’t have Larry Elder on local radio now, wait, I believe he did at least run for some office in CA, Glenn Beck. Beck turned out to be a disappointment. None the less Beck is right in there with ALL the so called “conservative” talking head that “think they know so much”. Hum , Ronald Reagan made a similar comment if not the exact one talking about “our” liberal friends know so much. Why don’t these guys make a difference and run for office?!
That’s very eye opening. Taki’s mag is a real gem. Their is a special place in hell for hypocrites like Gingrich.
The DA sends them to trial.
The judges let them out.
No way he gets charges.
If this has taught a lesson, it is to kill the feral nigger and walk away, just like this guy did, and see if your face gets on the news.
Only then do you lawyer up.
Jury nullification. Judges & prosecutors never tell the jury they have the right not to convict.
Well, a grand jury is simply deciding if there is sufficient evidence to bring charges related to a specific crime. But agreed, not only are juries NOT told, they are actually lied to. I was kicked off a jury panel once (for many reasons I did not wish to serve) because I specifically said that I would NOT take an oath to only judge the facts as my right as a citizen was to judge the law as well.

This is Texas where something like this is perfectly legal to do. Someone walks into a home or business guns out you automatically have the right to defend yourself using lethal force. Since these are state led charges the Attorney General should intervene and drop them.
Well, I’m from Texas as well. I have a CC permit and carry all the time. If you watch the news video and it went as described, he did a few things that will be not in his favor. 1) After the perp was down and appeared to be out, the dude put one last bullet into him. If the perp was still a threat then good on him, if not… 2) He left the seen….
The news indicated the police weren’t looking to charge (good, Texas thing although surprising in Houston). Unfortunately, he likely did some illegal stuff there and with the Soros DA will likely face some charges.
In a better era, blatantly corrupt prosecutions like this would be met with non compliance.
You can arrest and target one guy. But 10? 20? Good luck 👍 make them reveal themselves for the tyrants they are, or back them down with a show of what we used to call resolve or courage.
It’s long past time where we start standing together or hanging separately.
He had escaped the scene, surprising that he would be in contact with government subsequently. Certainly were he so situated as to avoid doing so he would have been far better off.
It’s a sad commentary when a career criminal is treated with more deference by the state than an individual defending himself and others. It is understandable from the position of the state, that is, to wield power over individuals as a primary function, but the work is suppressing the criminal rather than the citizen, in theory.
Do you think people would demand more cops, more prosecutors, more judges, etc. if crime were near zero?
The state went from “turn yourself in, we promise not to charge” to “enjoy jail for saving people, scum”.
Oops , posted a story on the original.
You have to make sure the threat is neutralized. FAFO
I’m gonna donate to the united negro college fund .Because a young niggers mind is a terrible thing to waste.
A waste is a terrible thing to mind.
Soros funded prosecutor obviously cannot be trusted to have any honor or integrity.
At least there is one less wart on the ass Of society
Kim Ogg…perfect name for a demonic creation…
“She is the Harris County District Attorney in Texas and assumed office in 2017. Her current term ends on December 31, 2024. She was previously the City of Houston’s first appointed Anti-Gang Task Force Director, and the executive director of Crime Stoppers of Houston. She is a member of the Democratic Party.”
“Kim’s legal career began in 1987 as a prosecutor for the Harris County District Attorney’s Office. While serving as a Chief Felony Prosecutor, she was appointed Houston’s first Anti-Gang Task Force Director by Mayor Bob Lanier in 1994. Under her leadership, Houston’s gang crimes declined by approximately 40%.”
Despite what her name may lead one to believe, she is actually pretty standard white looking.
So is Chelsea.
Too bad he didn’t put a bullet in Soros.
There needs to be a little justice for the citizens against the DA.
Shooting the niggah what, 7 times, and then walking up to him and putting another bullet in him ….. A TAD BIT EXCESSIVE, I’d say!
Maybe THAT’S why he’s being charged?
Yeah, one bullet to many.
The last shot …. I’d still find him not guilty.
Me too.
But, almost certainly the shooter’s life was NOT in danger when he took that last shot. Prosecutor might have a field day with that. Maybe the defense can prove the niggah was already dead by then?
Did the bobongo still have the gun in his hand? If so, yes, he was still a threat.
Rumor has it the robber was armed with a BB pistol.
Wouldn’t matter if it was a cap gun. You are not about to ask and verify with a thug if its a real gun and what calibre.
And, if you are that completely STUPID to rob a place with a bb gun in a state that is heavily gun cultured, then you deserve everything coming your way.
Exactly why in the first thread to the story I said the plastic “gun” is relevant, the fact just like not going to a gun fight with a knife, a would be robber…anyway, I thought one of the vids posted was interesting when the shooter picked up the plastic “piece” whatever it was and realized it had no ability to fire bullets throwing it across the room. I’m certainly not saying the shooter was wrong in nailing the guy, only there is relevance in the plastic.
For someone to attempt to rob or commit any crime with plastic could possibly be someone on meth that all of a sudden thinks he/she can move mountains. Scary shit from pictures of meth heads and incidents involving meth freaks. I pray for them. That shit is horrible.
If the defense can show that there were a number of shots that were sufficient to kill him then it would be clear that the last shot didn’t make any difference.
“Your Honor. As I approached to remove the weapon, to see if he was still a threat, and to see if I could render aid of any sort, he appeared to make a furtive gesture toward his waistline. In the stress of the moment, since he had already demonstrated a threat to life, I had to shoot once again to prevent him from pulling another weapon and to ensure that he would no longer be a threat to myself and others.”
Interesting vid in this one that I have not seen elsewhere. Seems that the perp was shot in the head after the shooter took the fake gun from the perp. Noir makes some good points.
Here is the full mag. I mean clip.
why we need hi-cap mags.
Puzzle yourself this: if a police person was the shooter then how many shots would have been fired?
Exactly. And they are “Trained”. Simple answer is you are only allowed to do what we say you can do or is reasonable to us. But WE can do whatever we want as long as there is some kind of excuse.
Practice makes perfect. If he shot him in the head the first time, nobody would question it.
Practice people.
The hero has a better chance with the Soros DA than with the Soros DA plus a civil rights trial filed by the “victim.”
All looks legit except they said he left prior to the arrival of initial uniforms. That seems odd. Forcible felonies deadly force no problem. Funny this gets coverage on all MSM platforms when many happen every day without the fanfare.
Shooting him 7 times in the back by Texas law, as he was thought to be armed with a firearm, was justifiable, in order to stop him from fleeing with the stolen property. If I understand Texas law correctly. But once he is down and unable to flee and / or present a threat, shooting him again might have a hard time flying past the juries. That could be looked at as an execution, rather than justifiable use of force.
I suppose if the shooter was smart he would testify that the perp still had the gun in his hand and was trying to turn to threaten the shooter still.
Shooter deserves the Public Hero award.
And reimbursement for the bullets.
but, but, but his mama said
“Eric was a good boy, turning his life around and just because he was threatening multiple people with what appeared to be a hand gun, don’t gibs nobody no right to hurts my boy”
So, pay mama $15 million and build a statue to Eric like the one George Floyd got.
Good shoot + protected species = trouble.
I’ve not read what caliber was used. It must have been a bloody event especially the final shot with brains sticking on the ceiling, walls and furniture. Where’s the surveillance on all that?
9mm vs. BB pistol.
Most stuff released to the public is edited for graphic content. I attended a handgun certification course back in the ’90’s where the Fairfax County PD had been invited to give a police perspective on civilian carry. The cops showed a video of a convenience store clerk who was shot in the heart at close range by a gangbanger using crappy .357 reloads.
The revolver misfired twice before the third shot went off. She was arguing. It wasn’t her money being taken from the register, but of course, in many places the cash in a mismanaged register is taken from the employee’s pay. She was wearing a white shirt, hit directly through the heart and you could see the blood bloom on her shirt from behind.
It took the poor woman almost a minute to die as she stumbled, and crawled in a pool of blood behind her register. I watched the video multiple times and it still bothers me.
Sometimes, what you see can never be unseen.
With any luck, DA Kim Ogg will be shot dead in yet another botched robbery…… by a convict she had released.
The shooter is fortunate he was not shot by a real McCoy. He would win no quick draw contest for sure.
A lot of folks eat at restaurants with booths. Sit in a booth and remove your carry from your person placing it on the unseen side of the booth bench. Place a napkin over it or maybe your big bandanna that is in your pocket. Practice 50/50 left/right shooting.
