fled your house, who you have subsequently wounded and who is on the ground without a weapon posing no threat to you?

Is that what he did? I didn't read anything about him shooting her while she was on the ground.

From what I have read, they were fleeing his home and he winged her, halting her flight. And then shot her as she pled for her life while she was immobilized.

I would have no problem with a just and rational justice system handling this perp severely. But this was not personal self-defense unless she still had a weapon and posed a threat. It is questionable self-defense in a lot of states to shoot at someone fleeing your property after an offense. I am not objecting to that aspect of this case. But killing someone on the ground who poses no risk to you because you have wounded them? That is not in the realm of the self-defense rights I fight for.

The man got away, but as they were both running in an alley behind the house. Greer fired his weapon at them and the woman fell after being hit by a bullet.

Greer said the woman pleaded, ‘Don’t shoot me, I’m pregnant! I’m going to have a baby!’ And I shot her anyway,” he said.
