"Loud Music" Shooter Says He's The Victim

Michael Dunn, the Florida man convicted Saturday in the so-called "Loud Music" trial, described himself as the "f-----g victim" shortly after the 2012 shooting death of 17-year-old Jordan Davis.
In newly released jailhouse audiotapes, Dunn appears to show little remorse when speaking with his fiancée Rhonda Rouer.

“I’m the f-----g victim here," Dunn is heard saying late in 2012 in the recordings released by the Florida Attorney General's Office. "I was the one who was victimized. I’m the victor but I was the victim too.”
Dunn had shot up the car that Davis was in following an argument over loud music outside a Jacksonville convenience store. Dunn claimed he saw a barrel of a gun coming from the car.
In the audiotapes, Dunn maintains he acted in self-defense, even though a gun was not found in the other car.

“I was the one that was being preyed upon and I fought back," he told Rouer. "It’s not quite the same, but it made me think of like the old TV shows and movies where, like, how the police used to think when a chick got raped going, 'Oh, it’s her fault because of the way she dressed.' I'm like, 'So it’s my fault because I asked them to turn their music down.' I got attacked and I fought back because I didn’t want to be a victim and now I'm in trouble. I refused to be a victim and now I'm incarcerated.”
A total of nine jailhouse calls were released, according to the Florida Times-Union. They include conversations with Dunn's father as well as his fiancee.

The attorney general's office also released a letter from Dunn describing the sequence of events, including what he believed to be the menacing behavior of one of the teens in the car.
"He bends forward and picked something up with both hands," Dunn wrote in the letter obtained by CBS News. "As he's doing this, he says 'yeah-I'm going to f-----g kill you!" and now I can tell what he's picked up, as he just laid a gun barrel against the window sill. I can see about four inches of the barrel sticking up and it looks thick enough to be a 12 gauge maybe a 20 gauge shotgun.

"Something happened inside of me when he advanced towards me and my paralysis left me," Dunn continued. "Between fear, adrenaline and muscle-memory, I grabbed my pistol from the glove box. As I was doing so, I shouted, 'You're not going to kill me you son of a b----!'"
Dunn, who faces 60 years in prison, will be sentenced next month, but his lawyer vows to appeal.

"I basically told him to stay strong," Cory Strolla said, "and we're still going to fight."
