No you cannot.


You claimed you cannot defend property with deadly force. You're wrong. There are varying circumstances from place to place but yes, you can defend property with deadly force. I'm not sure this case was one of those times.

The only time you can defend property with deadly force is if you are invoking the castle doctrine, which is not applicable here, so I didn't not consider that in your response. Yes, that is a small exception to general rule. The prosecutor doesn't have to prosecute any case, but he could in this case if he wanted to based upon manslaughter. This is based on the report of course. Whatever happened in that "confrontation" could have changed it to a self-defense situation.
