Local attorney breaks down Wisconsin's self-defense law after Kenosha homeowner kills intruder

Days after Kenosha police say a homeowner killed an intruder at a home near 69th Street and 64th Avenue, details remain limited. No new information has been released about the homeowner or the person they killed. Local attorney Jonathan LaVoy tells TMJ4 News that in a case like this, it all comes down to the way Wisconsin's self-defense law is written. He adds that it could take days or weeks before the public learns whether the homeowner was justified in killing the intruder. "The District Attorney's office is doing a careful analysis of what occurred," said LaVoy. "A person can use deadly force when they reasonably believe that their life is in danger, or their loved ones lives are in danger."
