At Law of Self Defense we generally talk about the use of defensive force in self-defense against other PEOPLE.
But what about the use of force in defense against ANIMALS?
The rules of engagement are not at all the same when defending against animals rather than people.
Lawful defense against animal attacks topic for today's show, prompted by an attack by a pack of Pit Bulls on a Philadelphia man earlier this week.

On Monday, April 29, 2024, around 1:30 p.m., the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force was attempting to serve active felony warrants for unlawful felon gun possession and felony flight to elude on 39-year-old convict Terry Clark Hughes, Jr.
As officers approached, Hughes began firing at them, striking multiple officers. The officers responded in kind, and the gunfight was on.
By the time the smoke cleared, Hughes was dead. Unfortunately, eight of the officers involved had been short, four of them fatally.
Today we'll take a look at a variety of legal questions that arise from these kinds of engagements including: Is the suspect's home the safest place to secure their arrest? Can it ever be lawful to shoot at police? Should a felon who has served their time regain their gun rights? And much more!
We'll also, of course, take Q&A from our Law of Self Defense Members.

An Ohio police officer responds to a call of a man walking around a residential neighborhood pointing a gun at homes.
As the officer pulls up, he sees a suspect that matches the description called in.
The officer begins to verbally engage with the suspect--and within seconds has fired a shot as he spots an apparent gun in the suspect's hand. The apparent gun would later be determined to be a toy.
Ohio happens to be an Open Carry state, meaning it is lawful to openly carry a firearm in public.
Does that make this officer's shooting of this suspect unlawful? What if it is determined that the suspect had only the most innocent of intentions in possessing that apparent gun.
Join me LIVE at Noon ET to discuss the video of this shooting!

Shocking video has been released showing a North Carolina Department of Transportation worker attempting to use a pistol to prevent the theft of his work truck.
He fires several rounds at the thief, who manages to drive the truck away backwards.
Unfortunately, the thief then drives the truck back to the scene of conflict, running down and killing the NC DOT worker.
The thief has now been charged with murder, larceny of a vehicle, and other crimes--but, of course, the NC DOT worker remains dead.
What went wrong in this tragic scenario? What were the legal errors, if any? What were the tactical errors, if any?

Watch as a shocking incident unfolds in San Jose, CA, where a group of brazen car thieves steal a Corvette in plain sight of security cameras, knowing they are being filmed, while threatening the owner's life if he attempts to prevent the theft.
Should such thieves threatening deadly force to complete their crime themselves be at jeopardy of deadly defensive force by the property owner? Could it possibly be lawful for an armed property owner to simply shoot down such thieves to protect his property?
If so, is this a case of the owner valuing his property over the lives of the thieves, or rather a case of the thieves valuing someone else's property more than they do their own lives?
Join this LIVE debate on whether it should be legal for individuals to use deadly force to protect their personal property in situations like this. Share your thoughts on this alarming scenario and the implications it raises for personal safety and property rights.

Today's Show:
In today's show we cover the Courtney Clenney Arthur hearing testimony of the lead investigator, Detective Brecino. Specifically, we cover Brecino's cross-examination by Defense Counsel Frank Prieto.
Overview:
This week we're covering "OnlyFans Killer" Courtney Clenney, who on April 3, 2022 killed her boyfriend Christian Obumseli with a knife in their Miami apartment. Obumseli suffered a single knife wound to the chest.
Clenney would tell investigators that the much larger and heavier Obumseli was a domestic abuser, and had pinned her to the wall by her throat and thrown her to the ground. She somehow managed to escape, move 10 feet away, grab a small kitchen knife, and toss it in his direction.
That knife managed to penetrate Obumseli's chest, severing carotid arteries, and quickly leading to his death from massive blood loss.
Although investigators initially perceived the event as an act of self-defense, they quickly began to suspect otherwise. Much evidence emerged that Clenney had been a violent abuser in the relationship--indeed, it seemed that she had previously stabbed Obumseli on an earlier occasion, simply because she was angry that he had stayed late to watch the overtime of a football game. There also emerged video of Clenney attacking Obumseli with her fists in an elevator.
Ultimately Clenney was charged with second degree malice murder by Florida prosecutors, and she is in jail awaiting trial on that charge today.
In late 2022 Clenney sought pre-trial release, offering to stay under house arrest with her parents in Texas. Florida prosecutors disagreed, and a motion was filed for an Arthur hearing. This is a Florida-specific hearing that is essentially a mini-trial, in which prosecutors have to prove by a strong presumption that the defendant is likely to be convicted at trial (Phase 1) as well as that the defendant is a flight risk if released (Phase 2).
The Arthur hearing was held on Tuesday, November 15, 2022, and Thursday, November 17, 2022, with key testimony primarily from the lead investigator and the medical examiner on those two days, respectively. Spoiler: On December 8, 2022, the hearing judge would ultimately deny pre-trial release. Nevertheless, the testimony of these witnesses provides us with insight into how the evidence is likely to be presented at the actual trial.
Over the next few Law of Self Defense shows I will be working our way through those two days of Arthur hearings and testimony.

In today's show, we'll be following a live stream of the trial, Wisconsin v. Zacharia Anderson. This trial resulted in the murder conviction of defendant Anderson, with Anderson sentenced in May 2023 to life in prison.
Despite not initially following the trial due to it not being a self-defense case, many respected lawyers concluded that the trial and conviction were a miscarriage of justice. As someone who cares deeply about injustices in the criminal justice system, especially in courts that may impact self-defense trials, I have been eager to watch this trial firsthand.
The trial is currently being re-streamed by MakingLawSimple--run by very sound Michigan Attorney David Helm--and Vielhammer media--who did a masterful job on optimizing the originally-terrible audio of this trial--providing an opportunity to analyze the proceedings.
Also, I've still got this respiratory infection going on, with lots of coughing and some difficulty breathing, and I doubt I could speak for a continuous hour as I do in a typical Law of Self Defense Show.
So, that's the plan for at least the next several days, taking. a fresh look at WI v. Anderson, as I finish recuperating from this cold, and we'll see how things develop.

In this video, we explore the 1939 US Supreme Court decision in US v. Miller, which was the Court's first substantive ruling on the Second Amendment.
The case involved Jack Miller and Frank Layton, two individuals with criminal histories, who never appeared in court to argue their side against the Federal government.
The decision ultimately ruled that the Second Amendment only protected firearms that were useful to a militia. Fast forward to today, where gun control groups argue the opposite - that the Second Amendment protects only non-military style firearms.
This contrast with modern Supreme Court Second Amendment jurisprudence, such as the landmark cases of Heller, McDonald, Caetano, and Bruen, makes US v. Miller a little-known but important decision in understanding the evolution of gun rights in America.
Learn more about this historic case and its implications in this video.

Today's show is Part 2 of 2 of our reading of the law review article "The Peculiar Story of United States v. Miller," by attorney and legal scholar Brian L. Frye.
In 1939, the US Supreme Court handed down a landmark decision in US v. Miller, shaping the interpretation of the Second Amendment.
This case ruled that the Amendment only protected firearms useful to a militia, sparking debates that continue to this day. Ironically enough, contemporary gun control groups argue the opposite viewpoint, claiming that the Second Amendment only safeguards weapons that are not designed for war.
Interestingly, the defendants in US v. Miller, Jack Miller and Frank Layton, never presented their arguments in court, leaving many questions unanswered.
Despite the lack of opposition, this case is significant as the Supreme Court's first substantial ruling on the Second Amendment.
It sheds light on the historical context surrounding gun control and highlights the potential manipulation behind the scenes.
In fact, US v. Miller, may have been orchestrated as a test case by supporters of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, aiming to pass gun control legislation without constitutional hindrances.
This possibility is well-described in the law review article, "The Peculiar Story of United States v. Miller," buy attorney and legal scholar Brian L. Frye, and published in the New York University Journal of Law & Liberty in 2008 -- ironically enough, the same year in which the Supreme Court decided their second substantive Second Amendment case, District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (US Supreme Court 2008).
Understanding the nuances of this case is essential in comprehending the ongoing debate over gun rights in America. Dive into the untold story of US v. Miller and uncover the complexities surrounding this pivotal moment in legal history.
