Pretty interesting read

If you make it though to part 3 of this, the part regarding letting the bad guy run to get away was...interesting. I know there are quite a few LE on the forum and would like to get your take. Basically in part 3 (if you want to skip to that part) it discusses engaging a bg in your home and letting them free.

If the dude tries to bolt, my choices as Suzy Civilian are:

1. Let him go.
2. Shoot a fleeing person.
3. Give chase.

In only one of those three do I have a whole bunch of legal cover.

I agree 100% if the bg "bolts", just interesting the article encourage the person to run. Points out:

STEPS TO MOVE THE SUBJECT

"I am going to move you to the door and let you run. If you do not follow my instructions or attempt to turn around and hurt me or my family, I will shoot you. When I tell you to, I want you to move one step at a time."
Step forward one step, do it now.
Step forward one step, etc.
