Gay panic defense

A legal strategy where the defendant claims to have acted in a state of violent, temporary insanity, committing assault or murder, because of unwanted same-sex sexual advances. A defendant may allege to have found the same-sex sexual advances so offensive or frightening that they were provoked into reacting, were acting in self-defense, were of diminished capacity, or were temporarily insane.
Some guy called Gabi dressed in leather overalls cornered me and made unwanted sexual advances in Folsom Street. I became so terrified and frightened for my safety that in a state of panic and self defence, I beat him to a bloody pulp and snapped his neck over a gutter. Next day I pled the gay panic defense and got off with a handshake from the judge.

Toledo Panic Button

1. When you shoot your partner to prove you’re not in working together.

2. Pretending to catch a criminal in the act that you are in fact working with.

3. Con-artist pretending to turn on each other in-order to dupe the Mark.
1. Richard Rovair used the old Toledo Panic Button tactic and shot his friend then pretended to give chase when the Mob Boss caught them stealing. Lucky for his friend it was only a flesh wound.

2. Tommy didn't almost get shot by accident. Hughes Johnson pulled a Toledo Panic Button on him when when his neighbors came home they found Tommy and Hughes inside their house, and their expensive plants being stolen. Hughes said he heard a strange noise, went to check it out, and saw someone stealing. His neighbors think Hughes is a hero now.
