You would win, back 20 years or more ago, right here in Maine, a woman blasted her husband while he was in the shower, fired 7 rounds, reloaded, fired seven more and if memory serves my dad correctly, reloaded and fired seven more. Jury found her not guilty.

Her defense, ‘he had beat me or made me fear he would beat me’.
