How long before the homeowner is charged with the crime?

I am still not sure why everyone always says to ask for a lawyer as soon as the cops show up. My statement would just be, "MF'er was up in my house. I shot him. Profit???" Edit: I am sure, it is just ridiculous. It is a terrible world we live in where you can't shoot someone who is trying to harm you. It is disgusting that you have to make conscious decisions that can affect the rest of your life after an incident goes down

Not a penny. Few attorneys in Harris County will even consider taking that kind of case. Before any sleazy attorney will take the case for the bad guy's family, they'll ask for a $20K up-front retainer, 'cause they know they're gonna lose. They have to make their money from the client, not the homeowner. Recalling my son's shooting, the bad guy's mama-cita couldn't find an attorney to take the case on contingency. She even had help from a foreign consulate and still couldn't find one.

Man, I don't know, yeah the guy entered his home and refused to exit.. So he say. The guy is 22 years old with a license, young kids tends to do stupid shite.. Could he have been itching to shoot the first person he got a chance to. Why in the head? Why not on the shoulders or legs or some placement less life threatening and take his arse to jail? Was the burglar armed? Could he have been lying about the guy refusing to leave. If you got caught doing something and you been warned to leave common sense would tell you to back up and go not continue to enter the guys home. Or did he not warned the burglar and took the shoot and asked questions later approach.. These are questions the jury will go through.

yeah wasting time asking questions is a good way to get your own arse shot. If I get woke up in the middle of the night to a break in, lives are forfeit.
