Looks like the homeowner was dead right. He did everything by the book, and has it documented. Smart guy! Covered his butt, and saved his own life. Good Job!! If only more people would pay attention to this.
Even though the actors involved knew each other, that STILL does not excuse the forcible entry. Castle Doctrine will come into play, provided all the information we are being fed is correct. With that said, and seeing how the liberal media treat advocates of the Second Amendment. Any CCW permit holder (or homeowner) should carry an insurance rider policy to cover just this type of incident.
The homeowner did the right thing by contacting an Atty before allowing the home to be searched.
No sane person wants to take a life, but if its me or them, well, it's going to be them. The moral is that it's better to be tried by 12 Jurors, than carried by 6 Paul-bearers. You just have to be damn sure you took the correct course of action, because you WILL have to prove it.

This will be interesting to see how it plays out.
