I asked this question in another thread, & it was a little off topic. So I
decided to post a separate thread. I'm posing this question specifically to
forum members that reside in Oklahoma, but all are welcome to contribute.
You catch someone in your home that has broken in, & they move towards
you. you stand your ground, & shoot them. Hopefully it ends there. The
police arrive. Are you automatically going to be arrested? What if you follow
general principle of not speaking to the police about the incident? This will
pretty much insure that you're "going downtown", won't it? Do you call legal
representation before you call 911?
