<<There are a lot of things about this that don't make sense. If there were three of them in hunting in the brush and the third guy was somewhere out of sight behind them, why did he turn and shoot without knowing where that guy was? Is it "normally" ok to shoot behind you in that circumstance?>> The third guy, instead of staying abreast of the other two had dropped back and over and was behind Cheney, where Cheney should have had a clear field of fire. When I hunted in heavy brush or standing corn we'd give a holler about every minute to keep the line even and if someone had a reason to vary from walking in the line, yell out and let them know where you're at. Apparently the lawyer had stayed silent and wandered behind Cheney. When you're walking in a line your shooting zone is 45 degrees to your left and right and the same behind. Think of this as a "friendly fire" accident because one person wasn't where he should be and didn't tell the others. BTW, Cheney bagged the quail on the same shot.
