Wisconsin adopts Castle Doctrine
Gov. Scott Walker has signed a bill that allows homeowners to legally kill intruders.
The bill, nicknamed the "Castle Doctrine," creates a presumption of legal immunity for someone who kills or injures a person breaking into his or her home, vehicle or workplace. The measure requires a judge to presume that the use of deadly force was necessary.
The immunity presumption would not apply to a shooter who attacked someone he or she should have known was a public safety officer. . . .
