Do you consult your live-in Lawyer before capping someone?
***There is a problem with that, because the entry will be deemed unlawful after the event by some monday morning quarterbacks. At least this law addresses the fact that the court previously deemed that citizens did not even have such a right.

My question is... if the cops enter the wrong house is it an unlawful entry?

If they find something illegal in the house even with an improper entry, are they allowed to prosecute the owner? If they’re going in hard for a drug dealer but find instead a kidnapper, is the case blown?

Good questions. Best answered while the adrenalin is pumping?
