The violent life and death of Troy Butcher

Article Abstract:

Two white men, Shane Mulhall and David Parker killed Troy Butcher, who had threatened to kill them and their families. The two were given 18 months sentence as the judge felt that by killing Butcher they were saving their life, however, his friend, Les Devery feels that justice was not done to Butcher, as he was an African-American, and if he was a white man killed by two African-Americans then the judge's decision would have been in favor of the deceased.
