Yes, he was the victim BUT he crossed the line from neutralizing a threat to his life to purposely taking their lives—especially the way he went about it.

Subd. 4. Presumptions.
(a) An individual using deadly force is presumed to possess a
reasonable belief that there exists an imminent threat
of substantial bodily harm, great bodily
harm, or death to the individual or another person, if the individual knows or has reason to
know that:

(1) the person against whom the defensive action is being taken is unlawfully entering or attempting to enter by force or by stealth, or has unlawfully entered by force or by stealth and remains within, the dwelling or occupied vehicle of the individual.



There is a line, it’s written in the law, he crossed it. He said he crossed it, he planned on crossing it.

Condone what he did? **** yeah I do. Those kids aren't ever going to victimize anyone else. He shot two repeated burglars and killed them. I don't care that he did it in a way that doesn't look pretty. Violence doesn't look pretty in general. The fact is those two were likely dead/going to die from the initial salvos. The headshots were mercy killings.


What do you think about this scenario? Homeowner chases home invaders. They're FLEEING and no longer a clear and present danger. Should he be charged with attempt murder? Same concept applies. They are no longer a clear and present danger, why shoot your gun?

I don’t know how you Americans live in your society. An elderly man having people in his house 12 times? No one I know has ever had a break in over here in Australia. I couldn’t imagine waking up and hearing someone in my house. Pathetic anyone who defends the two thieves

The thing is, if he had simply shot them to death that'd be one thing. He did record them while injured, taunting them - the audio was posted ITT.

I'm 100% on castle doctrine as my posts show, but this goes further than that - significantly.

I think the initial shootings were justified. I have no problem with ambushing an intruder either. Eliminate the threat before they have a chance to eliminate you. But this guy had zero common sense and went about this so fukkin stupidly.

Bottom line is it means fuk all what our opinions are. A jury found him guilty, judges upheld the verdict, and now he's lost his freedom, his home, and will die in prison.

Play stupid games...

The extreme ends of the wrong arguments are being OK with video recording, taunting and executing the criminals - we can't endorse being a psychopath. And feeling "bad" for the drug addict criminals who broke into his house repeatedly, stole thousands of dollars and personal family momentos - then you're just a pussy.

listen to the guy on recording - sounds straight demonic.

Some of you need to reflect hard lmfao, castle law or not imagine yourself firing execution rounds into 17 year olds 10 minutes after knowing you've incapacitated them already.

This happened years ago. Why do people bring it up every month or so like it's fresh news?

They had burglarized his home several times over the course of several months prior to him doing it.

If you were in your 60's living alone and had your home burglarized numerous times over the course of months, you're telling us you can guarantee some super cool-headed solution to the problem on your end?

Again, these teens broke in and burglarized him like 4 or 5 times over a matter of a few months, and clearly had zero intention of stopping. Was he just supposed to live like that forever until they finally left him alone out of the goodness of their hearts, or what?

Seems like the execution part was the deciding factor for the bleeding heart jury. He should've beaten them to within an inch of their lives and left it at that. He didn't help himself by having cameras which showed him moving his truck in anticipation for another break in. Should've turned them off and blasted them both multiple times while they were standing up rather than executing them later then not reporting it until the next day. Anyone with a brain or has seen a few crime reviews/shows knows that a coroner is gonna know exactly how long a body has been rotting. REGARDLESS OF GUILT......ANY JURY IS GOING TO BE FULL OF EMOTIONALPHAGGOTS SO HAVING A RECORDING OF THE ACTUAL AUDIO FROM THE KILLINGS DEFINITELY ISN'T A GOOD IDEA LMFAO

Vigilante Justice needs to come roaring back though IMO. Too many POSphaggots doing retarded BS these days. Bring back public hangings too SRS

If he just killed the dude he would probably have been okay. The girl posed no threat and he ambushed her much later without even calling the cops. Tortured her a bunch and executed her much later.

Should have stuck with the shots to the torso, waited a few minutes (5 hours), then called 911.
If that's true, then I can kind of see why he got 1st degree murder charges. I think it's retarded, and I don't have any sympathy for the burglars that invaded his home, but going "by the book" I can understand why it went down that way.

He was taunting them, you can hear her screaming. He says stuff like "Bang, you're dead", "Ohhh sorry about that", "Die you bitch", "you're dying" as he's shooting her repeatedly as she screams.

They no longer posed a threat. He dragged her about whilst taunting her and then executed her.

Yes, those kids shouldn't have been burglarized his home. But this is way beyond the pale and absolutely turned into murder.

I'll admit he didn'tneedto execute them after they were incapacitated, but still, that situation could've been anything & it seems to only apply to the victims.



As the old saying goes, rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

This is old…

The laws are different in every state

Think he was punished for not only incapacitating them but also toying and laughing and talking chit to them in front of their faces before he killed them. Sort of along the lines of torture ig

Yes his house was burglarized but his life wasn’t in any danger especially after he incapacitated them or he SHOULD HAVE shot them immediately instead of toying and talking chit to them before murdering them and laughing while he did it lol . From there he’s supposed to let the authorities take control, not murder them in cold blood.

That's not at all how the story actually happened, and it's grossly oversimplying how they burglarized that man's house numerous times for months. There's a reason the locals of that area almost unamiously feel bad for the old guy and think he got screwed.

How would react if people were burglarizing your home a couple times a month for a few months, and with no end in sight?

This is unhinged

And if I shot someone and they were incapacitated, I'd call the pigs to deal with it

I wouldn't taunt and murder them.
