They shot 17 to 20 rounds at her as they fled. Interesting number again, but you are right we are right on track with the stories out of Britain a few years back where they were charging people for defending themselves against home invasions.
I know this situation was really stressful, but it might be a whole lot less stressful if people would put in some range time. They might even get the return fire down to zero instead of praying to dodge seventeen bullets.

“ shoot to kill — hand gun to your wife — drag body inside and call the cops 😂
Bad advice. You don't want that declared policy to show up in a court setting; it could seal your fate. It is also beside the point. Competent gun shooting instruction always advises to shoot and continue shooting until the perpetrator is on the ground. You don't need more than that. You don't actually need him dead; just incapable of any further threat.
Dragging a body inside is another bit of bad advice. You don't think the police can determine this has been done? It would be circumstantial evidence of pre-meditated alteration of the crime scene, another bad courtroom optic. Which would also make your wife an accomplice.
Get clarity on the grounds for lethal defense. One of which is that a known deadline is 10 feet from you---if the perp attempts to rush you (after being warned to stay away and that you are armed), it is a demonstrated fact that, at 10 feet, they can reach you faster than you can react to their rush. That is last ditch personal defense. Defense with a firearm is NOT a contact sport. Distance is your friend.
You can hip shoot a 12 gauge with buck shot at almost any age — aim for the middle and cut them in half — my daddy taught me that in the 70’s when crap was just starting to get weird
But the person firing has to have enough arm strength to cock the gun. And that my friend is why a shot gun isn’t as effective for any frail elderly person.
Don't forget the balcony, most importantly the balcony. She has to have a place where she can fire 2 blasts into the air to scare off all of the evil bad nasties.
She needs an alarm system and a 12 gauge. They should have never left the house until the body bags were carried out.
Next CA will be charging her with assault with a deadly weapon. Just wait.

This
The Local Cops around me still tell people that. “Unofficially” of course.
From Jim Breuer monologue.
Florida Cop: "So your telling me he went out for his phone and came back in?" Me: "Yup." Florida Cop: "I'll buy that.."
