Summary: shooting him the first few times, until he was down and not moving, was legally OK.
Shooting him AFTER he had taken the gun away from the downed robber, was a bad move.
Heat of the moment. But, perhaps also why he left the scene.
yea.....only cops can shoot someone 47 times and get a award. Just maybe the perp wasn’t dead, and he may have been reaching for his fake gun. Im sure the cops don’t want to reimburse the shooter for his ammo, so screw them. Let them waste 500 man hours and some overtime looking for a innocent patriot, instead of pursuing some meth heads or crack heads selling $hit at the elementary school in town.

If he has watched any action movies, the bad guy always rises from the assumed dead to grab a gun or whatever.
He still could have been twitching and it was misinterpreted as reaching for a weapon.

Several years back a friend of mine was arrested after a bar fight. I went to court with him, the deal was already made, he would pay a fine plus 6 months probation.
The judge questioned him first and asked him, “Mr. Redfield, I understand that you hit him, knocking him off the bar stool but why did you him him again?” My friend replied, “He was still twitching, your honor”
30 days in the county jail for contempt of court.
I visited him while he was in jail, just to tell him what a dumb ass he was. All he could say was, “I know it, I know it, I know it.”
So what you’re saying is that it’s not okay to shoot someone who’s already dead?
Yep that final shot to the head took this from defense of self and others to a summary execution.
And dumping his cup of water on the corpse and throwing the cup at it as well as he walked out isn’t going to help his case either.
No way this guy is not going to face charges for this.
Yep. When he went for the kill shot to the head that was no longer self defense
