Gunfire at the Jungle Airstrip

A congressman visited a religious commune abroad to check on its members. As his group left from a remote airstrip with members who wanted to leave, commune members opened fire and killed him. The accused, a member, had spoken with the leader, got a gun, claimed he also wanted to leave, and boarded a second plane. When the shooting began, he shot two people near him. He argued there was no proof he intended or agreed to kill the congressman, who was shot by others at another plane.
