Classicvette63, I did not know any of those involved either. But, like you, going on what I read and saw in the movies, I do not think those two officers deserved being gunned down in cold blood.
I don't know how many other murderers have used the "prick defense" for justifying homicide. Probably a lot. If that was a feasable defense, I'm sure others would have by now. And maybe even for shooting a prick like me.
If I remember correctly, one of the CPO's was almost blind. And both close to retirement. And this fine outstanding mountain man had been reading books about and practicing fast draw techniques. I think he also said he would never be taken to prison or arrested or something to that nature. He took them by surprise is all. Most times conservation cops apprehend sportsmen without anything happening. Then there are times they run into a someone ready to kill for any reason they can find. I wish they had been more prepared.
