Here in WA we do not have a law that states you may stand your ground, but we do have court precident that effectively gives the same.
I know of a case in Spokane a couple years ago where a woman claimed abuse and self defence when she murdered her husband...probably not as the husband was shot in the back...woman tried and convicted of premeditated murder.
No one here likes to only go on what is in the newspapers, but in this case, I think the jury did right, at least per the information that was made public..
