What do you have to do to get jail time in NC?

Here’s another case of the official story misses the actual story.

North Tryon patrol officers responded to an A/D/W (Assault With a Deadly Weapon) call in reference to a subject shot in an apartment complex parking lot. When officers arrived on scene, they located a male subject in the parking lot suffering from an apparent gunshot wound. The victim was pronounced deceased by Medic at 3:43am.

I know that a dead guy after a shooting sounds like the story, but trust me it isn’t.

Victim

Look at his one criminal conviction. He was convicted in November of last year for “Discharging a firearm into an occupied property, causing serious injury,” a Class E felony. According to the structured sentencing guidelines (PDF) he was supposed to get 20-25 months in prison for a first offense of this magnitude. That sentence could be increased to 25-31 months or mitigated to 15-20 depending upon the circumstances of the crime.
