CCW Holder Convicted of Manslaughter in 2015 Shooting
Kendahl:
Never talk to the police is an oversimplification. It's valid for the guilty. The less evidence police and prosecutors have, the harder it is for them to make a case. The reverse is true for an innocent person who has had to defend himself. Evidence will demonstrate your innocence but only if it isn't lost. You should point out physical evidence and witnesses to the responding officers. If possible, be the first to call 911. Tell the operator that you need police and ambulance at your location and that you had to fight off an unprovoked attack. Don't say anything more than that. If you are interrogated by detectives, tell them that you will make a statement after conferring with your lawyer. Then, shut up and don't let yourself be tricked into talking. All of this is covered in legal training like Chris Zeeb's class Legal Aspects of Using Lethal Force, Gary Young's class Legal Survival and Andrew Branca's book The Law of Self Defense. To find a lawyer who knows how to defend innocent people (which is quite different from defending the guilty), join the Armed Citizens Legal Defense Network.

I didn't watch the video you linked. Must have found a longer version than the one I saw previously.
David Hineline:
I remember from earlier articles, I missed the above outcome and always wondered. He did his firearms training with Tactical 88.
When a situation like that runs on all day, you don't take matters into your own hand, let officer friendly deal with it, over and over all day long if need be.
Often the girl does not want her hump buddy arrested after the drunk wears off so they don't call police or they recant. When batpoo crazy girl calls you and says I am scared help me later if I get scared again, then just call the police in behalf of batpoo crazy girl. Anyone know if this was felony or misdemeanor manslaughter?
Chris Z:
Felony manslaughter and use of a weapon to commit a felony

An interesting presentation on the 5th Amendment begins here and proceeds through the next two parts, each part being several pages. It's written in cartoon style by a 30 year lawyer who is also an artist. It shows how self-criminalization and how sustaining your 5th amendment right is filled with barriers, pot holes and land mines. Even lawyers trip up, as the video above points out.
