In Michigan, a private citizen carrying out this shoot would be criminally liable for manslaughter and civilly liable for wrongful death.

This is a sad event. I must say NY police have a bad habit of shooting not only bad guys, but innocents too.?

This officer fired 8 shots at a man who was "initially"  holding a 9mm pistol to the head of the young woman, while using his other arm to hold her in a head lock?  Now if all home owners / occupants were OCing and this guy entered the house I see a very different ending if they had proper training.
