straight up shoots a guy over parking, the cops show up, and he gets to walk away for months.
Just to be clear, cops show up. One guy is alive, and the other is dead. The alive guy claims they were arguing over parking, and the dead guy is dead because he's been riddled with bullets from a gun that the alive guy is holding. The dead guy is unarmed.
They don't even arrest Bougere. They only confiscate the murder weapon. It's beyond bizarre. You'd at least expect them to arrest him on suspicion of something.
I don't understand what confiscating the weapon (and doing nothing else) even really achieves when the murderer owns a company with the word "militia" in the name.
At least it lets the police do some ballistics testing to verify that the bullets at the scene came out of that gun.
If you can account for all of the bullets and preferably all of the shell casings as well, it goes a long way to rule out more complicated scenarios like additional firearms or shooters.
