[QUOTE="C_Hallbert, post: 3276906, member: 42957"] I am curious as to the probable judicial outcome in the event that an Off Duty Officer (of any race) erroneously entered the wrong home, draws sidearm, shots are fired by either the resident or both parties, and the Officer dies (although this outcome is unlikely due to the generally superior expertise of Police Offices). Still, if the resident heard the door being opened there may well be time to draw a weapon in advance of the confrontation. I’m sure that the Prosecution would contend that a Police Uniform should be ample sign that the intruder is an Officer and that the Resident should lower his weapon, but what if the Officer opened fire first?
