I'm looking for a self defense case in IN. But my google-fu is weak today.
This to the best of my recollection are the facts to it, hopefully it will be enough for someone to remember the name.
A guy shoots another guy, but the guy lives. Shooter is charged and convicted. Shooter gets out of prison. Shooter and shootee run into each other at a park, I believe but not positive it was at a festival or fair. Shooter makes threats and says something about how he is going to finish the job, the goes for something inside his jacket. Shootee fearing for his life draws and original shooter becomes new shootee and dies. Police show up and the only thing the dead guy has in his jacket is cigarettes and lighter. The guy gets charged and convicted, appeals up to the IN supreme court and the conviction is overturned. Does that ring a bell to anyone?
