I could not copy and paste the link. This information puts a new angle on the story.
I read that too on a link, but just my opinion, if you're jumped by three guys and you chase one down and stab him you deserve a medal.

Re: Connecticut assault victim gets 18 months in jail for stabbing attacker

Under Connecticut law, assault victims cannot use deadly force if they are able to retreat from their attackers.
Law or not; as a prosecutor, I would not prosecute that case.
