A Los Angeles man was sentenced to life in prison for killing himself on   
   August 12, 2016 in the state of California. His name is being withheld.   
   According to police, he shot himself in the head with a pistol, and died   
   minutes later. A neighbor heard the shot and immediately called 911.   
   Police arrived six minutes after the call came in, but the man was   
   nearly dead when they arrived. They read him his rights and he responded   
   by making a grunting sound.  Paramedics came moments later, but he was   
   already dead when they arrived. He was pronounced dead on the scene.   
      
   Because he responded to his rights, the case went to court, and the   
   judge found him guilty of "Self Murder". He was sentenced to life in a   
   state prison. Relatives of the deceased have since filed for an appeal,   
   which will likely result in a jury trial. In the meantime, the body is   
   being kept in an undisclosed state prison until the case is closed.
