Is a "felony" a felony if the government has no legit power to make that law in the first place?
It stems back to this... What is a crime? Is it simply breaking the law? Or does a real crime have a perpetrator, a victim, and actual damage done?
The founding Fathers of this Country advocated the latter. Or as Thomas Jefferson put it...
"Of liberty I would say that, in the whole plenitude of its extent, it is unobstructed action according to our will. But rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add “within the limits of the law,” because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual. "

The guy was a roid head with a small pee pee complex who liked to beat on women. Because he was a vaunted firefighter he thought and did get away with things that average citizens would not.
I can’t believe you’re trying to defend a guy who shot 5 police officers who had a legit reason to roust this guy
