The United States is very strict in protecting private property and personal rights, but that does not mean that homeowners have the right to do anything to others.
Under special circumstances, the homeowner can indeed kill the intruder, but three conditions must be met:
1. Your residence must have walls or clear signs showing that it is private property. Without obvious signs or reminders, it cannot be regarded as a private residence.
2. The intruder must be intentional and refuse to exit despite your warning. Those who enter by mistake are not considered intruders.
3. The intruder must do something that threatens the personal safety of the homeowner or his family before the homeowner can kill the intruder. Even if the intruder breaks in intentionally, if the homeowner does not threaten the safety of the homeowner, then the homeowner can kill the intruder.
You can only call the police or give a warning, you cannot shoot and kill people at will.
Chen Mo satisfied all three conditions.
Although this manor is huge, there are wooden fences and iron gates all around, and there are even signs of "Private Domain" to prevent outsiders from intruding.
As for the second article, there is no doubt that Addicott broke in intentionally, and it was a deliberate murder, and he had already started the actual attack. In this case, Chen Mo did not need to give an unnecessary warning.
Is it possible that I still have to stick my head out in the rain of bullets and shout, "Get out!"
As for the third article, although Chen Mo was in a bulletproof car at the time, and the bulletproof car's defensive capabilities were also very strong, the other party was indeed attacking him with a rifle, and the bulletproof car was not absolutely safe. Sooner or later it would be breached under continued attacks.
of.
Therefore, even if the Cavalier off-road vehicle Chen Mo was driving at the time did have superior defense, he was still in danger and had the right to launch a fatal counterattack and kill the attacker.
This is why Chen Mo deliberately led Addicott and the others to change the location of the attack to his manor, just to catch them all here! And without having to bear legal responsibility.
If according to their original plan, Chen Mo was attacked at the entrance of the company, and he could simply drive away, he would not be able to launch a fatal counterattack.
The "castle clause" does not apply here. If he is not in danger, he has an "obligation to escape."
But it's different in the manor.
The location where Chen Mo was attacked happened to be within the gate of his manor and was within his private territory, so his "obligation to escape" could be exempted and the "castle clause" mentioned above would apply.
Although in actual terms, his territory is quite large and he can completely escape, but legally there is still no problem. This is Chen Mo's residence and he has no obligation to escape!
In the end, it was exactly what Chen Mo expected. After the police arrived, they watched the surveillance video and concluded that Chen Mo was acting in self-defense. They made a note and that was it.
There was nothing wrong with the case itself. Addicott's misappropriation of huge amounts of company funds was discovered by his boss Chen Mo, who kicked him out of the company and wanted to send him to prison. The grudge-filled Addicott hired a killer and went out personally, planning to attack and kill Chen Mo.
.
The motive for committing the crime is clear, the facts are clear, and the evidence is conclusive. There is nothing questionable about the entire case, so no one doubts Chen Mo's role in it.
Chen Mo did not suffer any losses except the loss of four big trees and the damage to the outer armor of a "Knight". Not only did he eliminate the hidden danger of Addicott, but he also took this opportunity to promote the "Knight" off-road
Car, this bulletproof car, which has just been put into mass production and has not yet been officially sold to the outside world, quickly became popular on the Internet.
The American news media has a very keen sense of smell. Many TV stations, newspapers and other media received the news shortly after the incident occurred, and obtained the details of the incident and the video of the roadblock at the scene from the police.
Later that day, a television station reported the attack.
Although guns are rampant in the United States, a vendetta attack of this scale and such a fierce gun battle scene are still very rare and attract the public's attention, so all major media are rushing to report it.
Chen Mo's identity was also dug out by the powerful ones. He is the boss of Aegis Motor Company and a young billionaire. The bulletproof off-road vehicle that is very eye-catching in the video is the new bulletproof vehicle produced by his company.
The location where the attack occurred was not on a tree-lined road, but inside the gate of his manor.
Therefore, Chen Mo was actually attacked at his own residence, so he had no "duty to escape." Crushing the six gophers that attacked him was self-defense and he did not need to bear legal responsibility.
This also made many people who were worried about Chen Mo breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, they sighed proudly that the laws of our rice empire are still sound. Killing gangsters in your own home does not require jail time. This protects the interests of our vulnerable people who are threatened by force.
, so that we can boldly fight back and safeguard our own safety and interests!
Chen Mo also likes the sound laws of the United States, which is very beneficial to his actions. He can kill people legally, and he can be crowned with the title of brave and fearless afterwards, which is very good!
After all, the news was broadcast a little late that day. Many people did not see the news and did not know about the attack.
As the TV and newspaper reports spread overwhelmingly the next day, more and more people knew about this incident, and they couldn't help but have a strong curiosity about the rumored miraculous bulletproof off-road vehicle. Because on TV
Only video clips were played, and many people's curiosity was aroused. They searched for the video on Twitter and watched it carefully from the beginning.
In this way, the "Knight" off-road vehicle became popular, and so did the owner of the "Knight" Chen Mo.
A young billionaire, the owner of the Aegis Motor Company, is ambushed at his estate by former employees of the company and five of his hired killers, under a sustained barrage of fire from six automatic rifles.
, relying on the protection of the super bulletproof vehicle just manufactured by his company, not only was he unscathed, but he also relied on the powerful off-road capabilities of the bulletproof vehicle to break through obstacles and launch a counterattack, killing all six attackers.
Young rich people, estates, assassinations, shootouts, luxury cars, counterattacks, any one of these labels can attract the attention of many people, and the combination of these many factors is full of fatal attraction.
No matter men, women or children, everyone was attracted by this news. On the Internet, the complete video posted by Chen Mo on Twitter also ushered in a more ferocious wave of clicks as the news was reported.
Chen Mo's Twitter followers grew rapidly. It originally exceeded 500,000 in one night. After the news was released on TV, newspapers and major websites in the morning, it quickly exceeded 1 million, and it continues to grow rapidly.
