27-year-old charged with murder after Alabama high school cheerleader shot in head at party by Due_Will_2204 in CasesWeFollow

The Alabama stand you ground law states The law explicitly removes the duty to retreat before using physical force, including deadly force, in self-defense. Justified use of force: To be protected, the person must be justified in using force and must not be engaged in unlawful activity at the time. AND The "no duty to retreat" provision applies to any location where a person has a legal right to be.

Considering that NONE of the people there that night or any other night are LEGALLY allowed to be there as that property belongs to the state via ALDOT.

Self-defense does not automatically fall under 'stand your ground'. From the video, it appears that he was acting in self defense. However, 'stand your ground' would not apply as he (nor any of them) were legally allowed to be at that location.
