My initial reaction was the same as yours but then I thought about it a bit. What "criminal mischief" was he doing 100 yards down the street? He wasn't shot at the time of the reported violation but down the road attempting to flee. If he was still anywhere near the truck, even if fleeing, I would agree but 100 yards away? Then it's shooting someone for committing a misdemeanor. Honestly I'm not going to get real worked up over it but I don't think that the law was meant for that.JP171 wrote:o b juan wrote:What property was he trying to recover?
What deadly force was being used against the shootist?
deadly force is used to stop unlawful deadly force !!
Fleeing criminal mischief or destruction of property perpetrators usually dont fall into the deadly force statutes !
do you hear a loud buzzing sound in your ears? no because that is the wrong answer sir, you may in fact use deadly force against someone committing criminal mischief during the night time, read the law
