Texas Gang Fighters May Escape Prosecution With Self-Defense Claim

Strong Self Defense laws in Texas may make it difficult to prosecute 170 people jailed for a Sunday motorcycle gang fight that left nine dead.
Texas allows a person to use deadly force with legal arms in self-defense if they believe such force is needed for protection from someone using deadly force against them. A person can also claim self-defense in response to other crimes like aggravated kidnapping, sexual assault or robbery.
It is an argument those in jail may use, claiming they were protecting themselves from violent people who were attacking each other with guns, knives, clubs, brass knuckles and chains.
