re: Chalk one up for the good guys!

When a Castle Doctrine law is passed, all that past case law goes out the window, null and void, kaput, gone, nada, to the trash heap, not worth the paper it's written on, etc.

The guy forcibly entering the home is the cause of action, not the homeowner squeezing the trigger.

Translation...no liability...criminal nor civil. Period.

With all due respect, it's far more complicated than that.

As stated, it is a fact specific inquiry. Every case is very different from the next and a blanket rule that a homeowner is never liable/guilty is simply not accurate.

That's all I'm going to say in response to this.
