We're back with part 2 of a topic that has angered us to our very core - Self Defense Murders! It's honestly wild how many of these are super NOT self defense, and the overuse of that as a means of getting away with murder clearly harms those who truly did make the horrific decision to kill someone to protect themselves. These cases highlight the ways in which our justice system is extremely flawed, biased, and often, just plain wrong. That being said, in at least one of these cases, the jury got it right, and the satisfaction we get from that, dear listeners, is truly Chef's Kiss.
Cases Covered:
1. Jessica Riggins
2. Bryon David Smith
