“She should have sat in the dark (unseen) with the gun ready for him to open the door and then blasted him. That’s the law here anyway.”
pretty much how the Colorado Castle Doctrine law is written, too ... uninvited intruders inside are totally fair game ... after a couple of failed test cases when the law was first passed, LEOs don’t even bother anymore going after the homeowners being intruded upon ... they just say “shooting justified” ...
That’s how it works here. I’m back in the hills of rural TN. If we call the law, it takes 45 minutes for them to get here if they aren’t already in the area. They always say, “if they get in before we get there, shoot them”.
