All of my murder clients have been self-defense murders. And these are really unique because a self-defense murder isn’t who did. It isn’t let’s get the best plea bargain possible. It’s all or nothing because essentially what we’re doing is admitting, “Yes, I did it. I killed him. But this is why.” And so assuming that you did so reasonably, justifiably under the law, you know, we’re looking for a dismissal, a no bill, or, ultimately, we’re going to trial. We’re trying to convince that jury that, yes, you acted in reasonable self-defense and get that acquittal. A self-defense murder is a very unique animal in the state of Texas, and it requires and all or nothing mentality.
