I bet Skull and Bulk framed him.

When this guy became the red ranger, I stopped watching Power Rangers. True story. Time Force was my last season.

Wasn't this already deemed self defense, as the guy was threatening him and the girl, and had broke into their room?

Or is this another red ranger?

[Superwoman Prime]

That's nice.

 

[Superwoman Prime]

Good one, Hellfish.

How about... Power Rangers: Orange Suit. We'll have to hire a bunch of no-name nothings to fill the roles, but that's keeping with tradition, yeah?

It's the same case, the DA declared it murder this week (allegedly).

I dunno who this guy is, I stopped watching Power Rangers after Turbo.

 

[Breogan]

Exactly.

Where did he keep his sword?



......wait! Don't answer that.

Yeah I though they had dismissed it as self-defence no evidence to charge with murder.

he was never charged because cops didn’t have enough evidence that it wasn’t in self-defense

So has some new evidence came up?

 

[The Apocalypse]

Tommy would have stopped him.

Time Force was a pretty good time to get out, honestly.

Yep and Saban lost the rights a year after. I did watch a few episodes of Dino Thunder when they brought Tommy back, I must admit. Nostalgia train ran hard.
