Probably shouldn’t say, “He was still twitching so I shot him again.”
My concern with some of the typical advice is how to handle the situation if your life is still in danger. You can’t exactly lay down your weapon and wait for the cops if there is another attacker threatening you.
Think Kyle Rittenhouse.

But…in a shooting—justified or not—you are going for a ride.
Self-defense is an affirmative defense. The prosecution has every right to demand that it be proved in court if a life was taken. Sometimes, it is obvious, but rarely is not prosecuted. In such a shooting, the shooter should avoid calling 911 unless the wounds are treatable. If the target is clearly dead, or not going to recover, the first call should be to an attorney. The attorney can call in the dead body, and when questioned by police will assert attorney-client privilege.

I’m pretty sure that anything that someone else says that you said is hearsay and inadmissible in court.
It certainly is hearsay, but it may very well be admissible evidence in court, especially if the person admitted to shooting someone, or committing a crime. Actually, if a person is accused of doing something by someone other than law enforcement, and it isn't denied, it likely is admissible that it wasn't denied, and therefore an admission, in a civil court.

My momma told me to shoot, shovel and shut up.
The advice I heard is, after dropping the assailant, fire two shots into the ceiling. The defense then becomes, "The defendant fired two warning shots, but the deceased kept coming at him."
Remember, it is better to be tried by twelve than carried by six.

Tip 8: If he’s still wigglin’, don’t finish him off.

"The defendant fired two warning shots, but the deceased kept coming at him." Unless you're wearing your T-shirt that says "Due to the increased cost of ammunition there will be no warning shots".
