Here's how it's gonna play out...
1. While he was severely beating the boyfriend she ran and got the gun.
2. She came back to find the boyfriend still being beaten.
3. First shot was to the back, ending the boyfriend's beating.
4. At this point he charged her and she continued shooting until he was no longer a threat.- In the state of Florida you are NOT required to only match force or to retreat if given the option.
- Florida does not recognize citizens arrest and you CAN be arrested / charged / sued for holding someone against their will.
You don't even have to be in your own home. Look at that guy in ( I think Tampa ) that was out jogging and two punk kids started crap with him. He shot one dead and the other ran off. The state filed no charges on him. I don't remember herring that they even had any weapons.
Yup that was the law they passed last year or the year before that you are allowed to stand your ground.

Forcible Felony = answer with deadly force
As soon as he broke into their home he committed a forcible felony and they were well within their rights to use deadly force to stop him.

Correct
The stand your ground law prevents that. If you break in my home, I can shoot you 87 times If I feel "threatened for my life".
Stand your ground law works for your vehicle and away from home too
The Florida law is a self-defense, self-protection law. It has four key components:
It establishes that law-abiding residents and visitors may legally presume the threat of bodily harm or death from anyone who breaks into a residence or occupied vehicle and may use defensive force, including deadly force, against the intruder.
In any other place where a person “has a right to be,” that person has “no duty to retreat” if attacked and may “meet force with force, including deadly force if he or she reasonably believes it is necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another to prevent the commission of a forcible felony.”
In either case, a person using any force permitted by the law is immune from criminal prosecution or civil action and cannot be arrested unless a law enforcement agency determines there is probable cause that the force used was unlawful.
If a civil action is brought and the court finds the defendant to be immune based on the parameters of the law, the defendant will be awarded all costs of defense.
