True, and that's probably why it's his story, except it doesn't fit with the 911 call showing he had intent to shoot and kill them before he left his house and "discovered" they were on his property. And I'm not sure their location been confirmed by the police at this point.
Add to that my fundamental disagreement with the idea that after calling 911 you should get to go outside and kill someone over a TV - the death penalty isn't used for burglary, even in Texas - and suffice to say I won't be contented with the fact that he
might have followed the law. Particularly when all he has to do is lie, or get his neighbor to do so.
