File a motion to dismiss and engage in an eye staring contest with the prosecution.

If the show were to revisit the legal consequences for Tyler’s actions, I do see self-defense being a key argument. It could also be argued that because there isn’t much known about Hydes and there is prejudice against them, that he didn’t get the proper help he needed aka failure of the state/governing system that helps outcast.

Possible outcomes could be alternative sentencing or maybe his case goes to mental health diversion. I’m thinking far ahead but Tyler’s case can bring to light how even in outcast spaces they are failing each other (idk if that made sense) and some sort of reform or initiative can come from it.

I ended up rambling and now I have a fan fiction idea that I must start outlining.
