Unfortunately, probably not. Look, I'm not happy about her situation, but like it or not, if you try to claim you pulled a gun on someone and pointed it at them because you were in fear for your life/fear of imminent danger, and then DON'T pull the trigger (or worse yet, give a warning shot, or ';shoot to wound') : Well, in that case your inaction disproves your claim .I don't like it, but that's what will be said.

This is why lawyers argue. Because one can be wrong.

If I'm legitimately in fear for my life, and therefore pull my gun, but then the other guy surrenders or stops threatening me so I don't shoot him, THAT'S HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO WORK. Nobody got hurt, and my life being in danger passed.

Tell me what state REQUIRES YOU TO SHOOT SOMEONE if you pull a gun even if the sight of the gun makes the criminal stop threatening you.
