Original Note:
Under Texas law the defendant was justified in using lethal force if he feared for his life. The prosecutor should have never brought murder charges in this case but was under political pressure to do so. https://www.westfallsellers.com/texas-self-defense-laws/#:~:text=Self%2Ddefense%20rules%20in%20Texas,attempted%20use%20of%20unlawful%20force.%E2%80%9D
