Can anyone here suggest a scenario that fits with what we do know about this case where both parties can claim self-defense under this law?
It would be one thing if Lewis said "I believe based on the facts that these guys were just out for an early morning drive with their AK47 when they were unjustly attacked first and defended themselves"; but that isn't what he claimed.

Taylor, who was driving the truck when Jackson, his passenger, was shot in the face with a bullet from an AK-47, did not pursue the immunity protection. If Lewis grants the motion in Brown and Tyler’s case, Taylor would still face charges in Jackson's death.

Taylor and Jackson were the initial shooters.
Brown and Tyler were the drivers in a separate vehicle with the AK, and were fired upon, then returned fire, striking Jackson in the face.
Taylor will not be using CD as a defense. Taylor will in fact be charged with something along the lines of contributing to the death of Jackson while committing a felony with a firearm (or whatever they call it).
Taylor will be held accountable for the death of Jackson... his own gang member.
This is an EXCELLENT message to send to gangs.
