Authorities have ruled a homeowner acted in self-defense when he shot and killed a neighbor in the front yard of a South Carolina home.
Lexington Police Chief Terrence Green said autopsy results show 31-year-old Derek Fogle had marijuana and several psychiatric prescription drugs in his system when he was killed July 23.
Green says Fogle ran up to Joseph Nicewonger, yelling before attacking him, throwing him to the ground and beating him in the head. |

"Green says Fogle ran up to Joseph Nicewonger, yelling before attacking him, throwing him to the ground and beating him in the head."
If it's that clear-cut, why wasn't it ruled self defense on July 24th?

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
