Casa Doctrine and Stand Your Ground vs. the Police
-
Short version:
- False burglary alarm led police to visit a West Texas house in the middle of the night.
- Home owners shot the police at the entry door, the shot was fatal.
- State prosecutor indicted the shooters/home owners for first degree murder charges
- The jury decided “not guilty” for the shooters/home owners
- (The home owners and police are separately suing the companies that provide and monitor the home security alarm system.)
