A quadruple amputee shot someone in his Tesla. Self-defense?

You are NOT gonna believe this story, cher

Okay, so where y'at, New Awlins? Let me tell y'all, this city always got a little somethin' somethin' up its sleeve, but this one? This one takes the king cake, baby. We got a quadruple amputee, a professional cornhole player, accused of shootin' somebody in his Tesla right here. And now his lawyer is sayin' it was all self-defense. A judge just said "nah, cher," to bail, which means he's stayin' put for now.

This ain't no ordinary situation. Think about it: a professional cornhole player? In a Tesla? And now a self-defense claim for a fatal shooting? It's the kind of story that makes you spill your coffee at Café Du Monde, even if it's 3 AM and you're just tryin' to get through your shift. This ain't just some national headline; this is happenin' *here*, in our streets, maybe even off the St. Claude corridor or somewhere you drive every day.

* **The Player:** Professional cornhole, a sport you don't hear about every day, much less from someone who's a quadruple amputee. * **The Incident:** A fatal shooting inside a Tesla. It’s a modern twist on a classic New Awlins mystery, where things are never quite what they seem. * **The Defense:** Self-defense, which will surely bring up a lot of questions about how that works in this specific, unique circumstance.

It's a wild one, baby, and it just shows you that even in a city known for its parades and its po'boys, life can take some real unexpected turns. You think you've heard it all, and then New Awlins says, "Hold my Abita." That's New Orleans, baby — we bury our dead above ground and keep the music below.

Y'all gotta hear Keith and the crew talk about this one every morning – catch it live, cher, at mornings.live.
