Why not?
The intruder takes the risk of entering someones property at their own peril. Noone could possibly know if their life is in danger, so I am perplexed how one can provide evidence when someone is in your home, the situation is dynamic and can go one of several ways...
1) They gain entry to rob and steal you, they flee when they see you....
2) They gain entry, but you disturb them, they turn violent and try to harm or kill you.
3) I would say those who are carrying weapons, or don't carry weapons but use items in your house likes knives and stabbing weapons to harm you.
In situations 2 and 3, I would say you have the right to defend yourself and your loved ones, if necessary to save ones own life and that of others, kill them instead.
From the reports, this dead *******, was a serial offender, seemed to target frail older people as a hobby. He was a coward and it's one less oxygen thief roaming around preying on the vulnerable. Good riddance IMO.
