Royal Palm Beach homeowner kills would-be thief

http://www.cbs12.com/articles/one-47376 ... mpted.html
Sheriff's investigators say a homeowner, who was trying to stop several men from stealing his motorcycle, fired at the thieves and killed one of them, 19-year-old Benjy Young of West Palm Beach.
I found this item of particular interest. How do you suppose someone with a CHL would punished for the same act?
In May, Young pleaded guilty to attempted first degree murder while wearing a mask, shooting into a building and being a delinquent in possession of a firearm. Authorities say he was sentenced to one year in prison and five years probation. He was given credit for time he had already served, and was released on probation
