Texas may be one of the few states where the Executive enjoys very limited pardon power, if any at all. This guy could be screwed.

His defense will be a suit brought against the local DA for wrongful prosecution. Texas has a castle law. If I'm not mistaken, he was defending his life from his car.

Testimony from the investigating officer should be revealing.

The observation about the Castle Law is appropriate.

This case should get removed from the court calendar before it ever gets to trial.
