Perhaps. Wasn’t it the Philippines that had a known corrupt official running it? I mean, all politicians are corrupt, but IIRC that guy was like extra corrupt. Or maybe it was the one before him?
Stand Your Ground laws basically don’t apply when the investigation reveals that it was not an act of self defense. Even if the other person was a horrible person like a sex offender, you might maybe get a more lenient sentencing of crime of passion. But murder is still murder.
