> nobody has been charged over the matter and a report is being prepared for the coroner. > wa police would not comment on whether the matter was being treated as a home invasion defence case. > according to western australian law, an occupant of a home can "use any force or do anything else that the occupant believes, on reasonable grounds, to be necessary ... to prevent a home invader from wrongfully entering the dwelling". seems like a pretty clear case of self defense.
