In Georgia, the parents of three teenagers who were shot and killed while allegedly attempting an armed break-in are suing the homeowner responsible for the shootings.
The incident took place around 4 a.m. when the teens—reportedly wearing masks and carrying weapons—broke into the home. The homeowner responded with gunfire, resulting in the deaths of all three. Authorities later determined that the homeowner acted in self-defense, and no criminal charges were filed.
Despite the official ruling, the families of the teens have filed a civil lawsuit, seeking damages and accountability for the deaths of their children.
The lawsuit has sparked widespread public debate over stand-your-ground laws, the rights of homeowners to defend themselves and their property, and the legal and moral implications of using deadly force.
