48. A Case of Self Defense

  • Resumen

  • 48. A Case of Self Defense Did George Zimmerman have a reasonable fear of imminent harm when he confronted Trayvon Martin? What about teenager Kyle Rittenhouse during the 2010 riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin? When is it self-defense - and when is it murder? This week, I talk with Texas private investigator Amy Ward about these two well-known self-defense cases and three other self-defense cases that are not so well-known. What is required to make a successful self-defense claim? We also discuss the Stand Your Ground laws and Duty to Retreat. In episode 48, I speak with Amy Ward. Amy Ward is a licensed private investigator and the CEO of Investigative Results, based in San Marcos, Texas. With over 17 years of experience in the industry, she’s built an impressive career handling a wide range of cases, from wrongful death and criminal defense investigations to insurance fraud, workers' compensation, and pretrial litigation investigations. She is particularly skilled in interview-based investigations, focusing on criminal defense, witness interviews, and pretrial litigation. Before her investigative career, she worked as a Corporate Loss Prevention Associate and as a social worker, helping at-risk youth and survivors of domestic violence. Amy is a US Army veteran. She has a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice and an Associate of Arts in Paralegal Studies. THIS EPISODE CONTAINS SUBJECT MATTER THAT MAY BE INAPPROPRIATE FOR SOME AUDIENCES.
