But the other half is that the person must reasonably believe that the use or threat of the use of deadly force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm. Since the attacker had already taken four steps back due to the threat of deadly force (pulling the gun), is it reasonable to think that deadly force was then necessary? Maybe, maybe not. I would love to have the courts decide. I think it's reasonable to assume that McGlockton no longer wants to attack him once there is a pistol pointing at him. But again, I would like the courts to determine that, after evidence from both sides is presented at trial. Yes, McGlockton's history should absolutely be used against him, if pertinent. |
