Be interesting to see what happens, he fired 5 more shots at close range after gun flew out of the suspects hand. One of those was execution style.

Not that the guy didn't deserve it...just not self defense at that point.

Adrenaline kicks in, you don’t think clearly or rationally. If anything happens to the guy, meaning criminal charges, hopefully it isn’t too much more than a slap on the wrist, and no jail time.

Similar case from OK in 2009.

Ersland claimed at trial Parker was moving and he felt threatened. Testimony at trial revealed there was no evidence Parker moved after the first shot caused him to fall to the ground. A pathologist with the State Medical Examiner testified Parker was still alive after the first shot and ruled it was the final six shots that caused Parker’s death.

After a lengthy trial, the jury found Ersland guilty of first-degree murder and sentenced him to life in prison with the possibility of parole. The jury was given the option of manslaughter but opted for the more severe murder charge.

Only a moron would down vote your correct and reasonable post.

That dude will end up pleading guilty to manslaughter.
