According to the bill, there are other 'qualifiers' for the use of deadly force. It doesn't appear as though one must actually be in one's "habitation, vehicle, or place of business or employment":
Whoops missed that part. legal jargon is certanly not a strong point for myself.
I cannot find where it is in the video that Rodriguez provokes the party goers. He was in the street. They drove to where he was. They got out of the vehicle. They began to harass him
From the video, yes it does appear that way. My only guess is that the jury was presented additional evidence from testimony that may have painted a different picture about the initial encounter with the party goers that was not on Rodriquez's tape. It may be that he had came over to the house and his actions provoked their response and by being in the street he was continuing that provacation. I know, it's speculative and I don't have anything to justify the statement. I am just trying to offer an example that may have influenced the jurors decision.
