If your lawyer tells you to move the body, you need a new lawyer. btw, I am shocked at how many people say that asinine comment in this day and age.
It made sense as little as 30 years ago, but today - oh HELL no. Modern forensic investigation techniques and technology are so good it’s scary.
I second that - if your lawyer tells you to move the body, get a new lawyer. Better yet, move to some place where that is never going to be an issue.
In Connecticut, we arent even allowed to shoot inside our homes unless we are cornered!
LITERALLY, we are suppposed to jump out a window if it is availabl and escape first before using deadly force against someone.
Good ting I am on disability, I cant jump anymore. But I can squeeze...
The law in Texas is very direct on this issue. You can use deadly force to prevent theft. "To prevent the others imminent commission of arson, burglary, robbery, aggravated robbery, theft during the night time" Texas penal code 9.42
You can also use deadly force against an individual that is fleeing with your property at night time. The code assumes that at night you can not tell if the bad guy is armed and deadly. Therefor the law comes down on the side of the victim and assumes the bad guy is a deadly threat if it is night time. She will walk.
