Kraft talks Castle Doctrine for story on NBC 26

Following an incident in Michigan last week in which a homeowner shot and killed an intruder, reporter Eric Crest took a look at Wisconsin’s law, in place since 2011. “It makes it more legitimate for a homeowner to fire a weapon in self defense than it used to be,” Kraft said. “… Many homeowners may feel they now have a right to shoot anybody who enters their home.
