Georgia has a no duty to retreat law where you can use deadly force against someone who invades your home and threatens you/your property, without trying to escape first. You can't shoot someone if you were just scared of them though, at least on paper. There has to be an imminent threat. But yes with the incident involving 1. a black man, 2. trespassing, 3. Georgia... might get away with murder if you hire a 'good' lawyer.
I can’t bring myself to upvote this. But thank you for the explanation.
and by good lawyer he means one thats not gonna release damming video of you essentially lynching a black man thinking itll be exculpatory.
