So I wound both of them and latter they kill me and escape scott free. HHHHMMMMMMMM ...
There was a home invasion in Houston last decade where a pair of thugs entered a couple's 3 story home (tall and narrow). The home owner shot and killed one of the invaders on the staircase leading upstairs.
The other one left and later turned himself into the authorities (who did NOT prosecute him and would NOT reveal his identity to the home owner). The shooting was investigated and ultimately the homeowner was not charged in the shooting. He asked what he should do about concerns that the partner may come back for revenge and he was advised by the city to circle the block a few times if he was worried he was being followed.
I believe Chuck Rosenthal was the DA at the time. He was not very gun friendly (he was against citizens having guns in their car and wanted to prosecute drivers for it even though the legislature approved it).
