Once you have the victim subdued, you cannot use deadly force.

I’ve heard reports that Trayvon had Zimmerman pinned to the ground. I mean, how else could you explain the grass stains on the back of his shirt and the bloodied face?

Martin was subdued because deadly force had been used to repel his potentially lethal attack. Martin wasn’t shot after Zimmerman was able to get up.

“Once you have the victim subdued, you cannot use deadly force.”
********************************************************
I’m assuming you’re not trying to intimate that Zimmerman subdued Martin and THEN shot him?

That's certainly true.

Do you have any particular situation in mind to which that assertion is relevant?

Subdued? Who was subdued and when did the deadly force occur after that?

I guess only YOU could twist the fact that Martin had Zimmerman on his back and beating on him as being "subdued".........

Kinda like Custer saying "don't worry men, we have them right where we want them"........

And exactly when do you know the PERSON THREATING YOUR LIFE has been subdued?

My best answer is when he is no longer living.
