Self-Defense in Seattle

From the Seattle Police Department: Detectives Investigating "Self-Defense" Shooting in South Seattle - SPD Blotter

This was a case of the ex-boyfriend breaking into the his ex-girlfriend's apartment and attacking her current boyfriend. So, file this under another guy who didn't understand the phrase, "It's over."

Police determined that the 33 year old forced his way into his ex-girlfriend’s apartment and assaulted her new boyfriend, the armed 27 year old. He then shot the ex-boyfriend in “self-defense,” according to [Gun Violence Reduction Unit].

Police interviewed the shooter, and released him, because Washington State has a long history of recognizing self-defense as a legal right.
