In Texas if you feel yourself or your possessions are being threatened you can use deadly force. If I walk into my home and strangers are inside, I’m probably going to feel like, at the very least, my possessions are being threatened. I don’t see my home as being any different from my rental property.
Plus, I sure wouldn’t put much stock in the meth head’s testimony.
I understand what you are saying......but there's a big difference between the house you live in which you certainly have the right to protect against invasion and a barn, or shed or rental property which is not inhabited by anyone.
If the guy can prove that his life was in danger and required his killing of one and wounding of the other, then good for him.........
