Prove he was leaving, Ill never be indicted. Dead men tell no tales, Under the law he forfeit his life by entering my property. It is assumed my life is in danger from his presence alone. If he jumps out a window, OK sure I am on the hook. But he is no longer in my house, so its a grey area. Just because he turns around doesn't lessen his threat to me, he may be seeking cover in another room to return fire. Or seeking a hostage in my kids room. Or going to get a weapon he laid down in the kitchen.

The Castle Doctrine founds its first application in Ohio on September 23, 2008, just two weeks after it came into effect. An intruder entered a garage below the apartment of 65 year-old Lawrence Hanson III on St. Clair Avenue in Cleveland, at approximately 2:45 a.m. Hanson spotted the intruder breaking through the steel doorway, put on his boots, and grabbed his 9mm pistol. Hanson chased the man out of his garage and to a fence about 40 feet away. He repeatedly warned the intruder to stop, informing him that he had a gun. The intruder turned to walk towards him. Fearing for his life, Hanson shot the man once in the chest. The intruder dropped to the ground and died soon after. Due to the enactment of the Castle Doctrine in Ohio just two weeks prior, Hanson was not prosecuted for the justifiable defense of himself and his home.

Shot him outside, made him turn around then blasted him. Only in America!!!!!

EDIT
Don't get the wrong idea I am not trying to glorify killing someone. I live with a young child, and my aged infirmed mother in law in the home. I have sworn to defend my home against all scum who seek to enter without permission to commit whatever grievous acts. I train to shoot center mass, not to try for a leg or an arm. But to shoot at the biggest target possible where even a slight miss to the heart will undoubtedly stop an attacker/intruder. My position is not to interpret your actions, once you illegally enter my home, My position is to defend myself and my family by whatever means. And until you are dead or out the door, you are a threat to my home. This is what the Castle law affords and regardless it is my position in the matter.

Under previous Ohio law, a property owner had to show self-defense in order to use force to defend his home, and even then was only permitted to use a reasonable amount of force necessary to provide such defense. "In order to establish self-defense, a [property owner] must show: (1) that he was not at fault for giving rise to the affray, (2) that he had a bona fide belief that he was in imminent danger of death or great bodily harm and that his only means of escape from danger was use of such force, and (3) that he did not violate any duty to retreat or avoid the danger." State v. Robbins, 58 Ohio St. 2d 74 (1979).
