FLORIDA DEFENSE OF OTHERS LAWYER
|
Defenses to Violent Crimes
I was just protecting another person from a maniac! That's essentially the defense of others. The whole issue at trial is going to be whether your actions in defending another person were reasonable. For instance, you cant shoot somebody if they are only kicking you with their feet. Generally, the defense has no burden of proof. However, with a defense of others claim, we have to prove that you reasonably believed your conduct was necessary to defend another person against the accusers imminent use of unlawful force. Also, we must prove that the use of unlawful force by the accuser took place or must have appeared to you to be ready to take place.
The jury must judge you by the circumstances you were surrounded by at the time the force was used. Every case is different. What is reasonable defense of others is defined by the jury that you and your criminal defense lawyer pick.
