Every person accused of an offense is presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, and the burden of proof for all elements of the offense is upon the prosecution. The burden of going forward with the evidence of an affirmative defense, and the burden of proof, by a preponderance of the evidence, for an affirmative defense other than self-defense, defense of another, or defense of the accused's residence presented as described in division (B)(1) of this section, is upon the accused.
(B)(1) A person is allowed to act in self-defense, defense of another, or defense of that person's residence. If, at the trial of a person who is accused of an offense that involved the person's use of force against another, there is evidence presented that tends to support that the accused person used the force in self-defense, defense of another, or defense of that person's residence, the prosecution must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the accused person did not use the force in self-defense, defense of another, or defense of that person's residence, as the case may be
Sounds great but you are in litigation for a very long time. If you don't have insurance than it's going to cost a ton of money. If you do have insurance they will look at the case and if they think you are guilty they won't cover you.
It's not as simple as what you stated.
You still have to go through the whole process. Which sucks in America...
Oh and good luck if it's not caught on video. Now it's he said she said and if you lose your locked up. If you win your not locked up. It's not worth it.
