"laying in wait and then executing a burglar is illegal "

You mean these guys were in the burglar's house?! I was under the impression that the burglar broke in to their place of business.

Again you just don't get it. Who's house it is is immaterial. Self-defense is not the same as setting a trap and then killing someone. The prosecution faied to prove that at trial (which was, hopefully, a just outcome) but the facts certainly suggested the possibility, and a grand jury obviously agreed.
