Loss of his life: Federal Court - “violating his “civil rights.”

let’s say z is convicted, sent to jail and is killed...Then it is proven via appeal that Z was not afforded his constitutional rights....can the state be sued or the judge be sued ?

Even in civil court it has to be proved that it wasn’t self defense. Self defense is still the law. I think it has to be “preponderance of the evidence” and not “beyond a reasonable doubt.”

The “preponderance of the evidence” does NOT support TM. It still supports GZ.
