It looks like this is a pretty clear cut case for once.

Anyone else find it annoying that they lump the intruders death in as "The eighth homicide this year"?
Well it apparently was a homicide, but judging from the limited amount of information in the article, it appears that it will be ruled excusable. Still the press, in all of their radiant self-anointed glory, can be trusted to paint an excusable homicide without using the word "excusable" in order to further their disdain of armed citizens.
C'mon, it's clear that it was/is a homicide. So that's what they report.
Lots of speculation off of a 104 word article.
Guilty until proven innocent, right Hank?
That's a stretch.

Hard to report it an "excusable" homicide until it's ruled that way.
How would you have written the report, SB?
Huh?
"Guilty" of what? Who is "guilty," epi?
Burglery implies it is not a crime against a person, only property; and lethal force is not justified.
If when confronted, the burgler threated the "confrontor" making him fear for his safety, then lethal force would be justified.
