Kind told police that he heard banging from the back of his house and said he was scared it might be retaliation for calling the police. Instead of calling the officer back, he got his revolver and went to the rear porch. He told police he noticed someone stand up in the dark, and fired after the person raised a hand and stepped forward.
Bensen concluded that the late hour, the darkness, the expectation that the intruder had broken in through a locked door, the close quarters of the porch and the fact that his wife and children were in the home all supported the castle doctrines presumption that Kind acted reasonably in using deadly force.
