... “believed to be breaking into the apartment of an estranged acquaintance (but) in advertently broke into the wrong apartment.”
Even if Dejean-Jones had picked the "right" apartment, the occupant would have been justified in shooting him dead.
When one violently and unlawfully enters an abode, one risks his or her life. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
