Lots of folks think shooting a fleeimg perp is fine , if they do then they need some Ignorant or sympathetic

jurors or quite possibly A DA who can look away.

Opinon: Deadly force should only be used to STOP Deadly force

read PC 9:32 and and it lists the actions or circumstances :rules:

Goodnight
Not an expert but 9.42 2B. If I interpret this correctly since this was a night time theft, the use of deadly force would be legal with followup to 9.42.3A. Not suggesting that this was a smart thing to do but legal ( in Texas?). Again, I am not a legal expert but I believe that in Texas he would be legal using deadly force.
If I understand correctly what the man said in the interview the male BG took money from his safe and if they were fleeing with it that would change things if the incident took place in Texas.
You could shoot someone like this and not face charges but you still need to keep your mouth shut. Several different laws could justify the shooting of the women but he wasn't making claims to have shot to try to reclaim his property, he is saying he shot because they robbed him. That isn't legal in Texas either. Mind you I don't think many Grand Juries would indite but still.....
