Yeah, I wasnt arguing that. Like I said he then would face manslaughter? At the end of the day, he killed someone and we cant let something like that go un punished?
One thing I dont know, can you be let off for defending yourself, even if someone had died?
Anyway, as we dont know the facts, anything could have happened and the Police would have to investigate a murder anyway.
