100% the victim talked to the police, and incriminated himself somehow. Especially in a liberal paradise like NYC, never talk to the police after a self defense shooting. The only words out of your mouth should be "LAWYER" and "I do not consent to any searches or seizures". Then you shut your mouth. Don't talk to the cops, the media, your family, your friends. Let your lawyer do all the talking.
a few months ago, a jogger was on video attacking a bogeda worker who is an immigrant from dominican republic. the jogger walks around the counter and just starts wailing on the latino. the latino takes a few hits, grabs a knife and stabs the jogger, killing him pretty quickly. whole thing is on video from a very clear angle, very close up too. there's no legitimate factual dispute as to what happened.
bragg charged the latino for murder, all for defending himself from a convicted felon jogger.
NYC will actively prosecute any non-black person claiming self defense, doesn't matter how innocent. do not cooperate with the police in any way. everything else you said is correct.
If the cops want to arrest you and the DA charge you, they have ways to make you incriminate yourself:
Intimidation
The Reid Technique
Good Cop, Bad Cop
The PEACE Method
Even something as innocent as the cop saying "he really deserved it huh?" If you agree, you just victim blamed your victim, and this fact will be used against you in court. People have no idea how much trouble seemingly innocent conversations with cops can cause. Shut up and lawyer up.

bragg is a racist douchebag.
