even in the People’s Repulik of Maryland one can still lawfully shoot a fleeing felon ... and these people were certainly fleeing felons
now proving to His Majesty OweMalley and his merry band of misfits that you were simply following the law is another story so I don’t recommend that action
Ditto your post for the state of Washington. A year ago a shop keeper shot a kid in the back from 120’ and no charges filed. This year a guy shot a car thief as he fled and is being brought up on charges. Hopefully the jurors will follow the law and find him not guilty. It’s a crap shoot.
