[Repeat Offender]

This case has been discussed ad naseum here. Leaving the room and going out into the garage,where your vehicle is (and sufficient means to leave) and retrieving a gun, walking back to the scene of the argument and recklessly firing a "warning shot".....is not stand your ground.

Nice try though.

Everyone except black pundits seem to know that firing a warning shot is illegal.

Not even close. You can’t retreat from the situation to retrieve a weapon then return, and you can’t fire warning shots. Either shoot ‘em or don’t - no in between.

That said, in this case the law is an ass. This woman does not belong in jail.
