No Prosecution in Medina Case by Finney County
Finney County Attorney John Wheeler states the 17-year-old shooter who killed 18-year-old Braxston Medina during a September 2011 home intrusion will not be charged. The decision cites self defense, dwelling defense, and Castle Doctrine provisions as grounds for declining prosecution after reviewing reports and evidence. Medina allegedly forced entry at about 9 30 a m into a locked residence.
