Colorado has had castle doctrine law quite awhile- better than 10 years I think. home defender cannot be sued for defense of home or charged criminally unless grand jury hear something about intent of home defender with false reporting- as the deceased was shot at bar a mile away and brought to home for coverup of offsite shooting. First person to take advantage of no sueing clause got cussed out by lawyer while recorder was on - lawyer said didn"t matter if deceased was a crook intent on robbing or killing, the lawyers were not getting money from insurance companies that wrote home owners liability policies. Next year the home owner shot another one trying to break in and threatening, records indicated association with first home invader and lawyer. Minnesota doesn"t have castle doctrine law yet? I think there was some discussion 2 years back in the state legislator about adding it to concealed carry law but was seperated- maybe lawyers worried about losing money there. Texas passed castle doctrine law and a month or so later couple burglers of neighbors house shot by guy who had called police- burglars were getting ready to run when he used deer rifle on them, surprise!, police high ranking officer arrived 5 minutes later with responding squad car- police were going to arrest shooter but county attorney told them the recent law forbade arrest without grand jury indictment- not the previous practice of arrest and let judge figure it out couple months later- prosecution/arrest action in defence of home case forbidden by police, civil actions also prohibited absent grand jury. Grand jury heard case next month, lawyer said wasn"t his house that was burglarized, grand jury said as far as they were concerned the law was written loose enough to cover fleeing felon case law and shooter should be rewarded- charges rejected with predudice, no true bill. Crime rate in neighborhood seemed to decline next couple months. Drunk causing ruckus should be handled by police? Police and lawyers should be on call and respond quicker- let bar association have the lawyers take turns responding to help calls. Lawyer doesn"t get there in time, bar association pays funeral expenses. Be interesting to put that on a state referendum. RN
