Nathan Newman, on a collision between the Court’s anti-knock ruling & “Castle doctrine” laws protecting people from prosecution for defending their life & home:

Now, the text of such Castle Doctrine laws don’t actually protect you if you shoot a police officer, but if the police don’t identify themselves when they enter a home, it’ll create a pretty bad legal tangle for juries when defendants can claim they thought the officer was an unknown intruder against whom they had the right to shoot on sight.

Yeah, the kind of tangle that results in a man sitting on death row for reacting to a late-night home invasion by shooting the intruder, only to find out it’s the cops looking for his neighbor.  Nathan Newman, meet Corey Maye.
