Why You Need Second Call Defense

The scenario below is not a scare tactic. Nor is it overly dramatized. It is simply the description of a typical event and its aftermath. An event that has played out countless times in average homes across America. 

A typical scenario (in brief)…

It’s 3 a.m. You and your spouse are asleep in your bedroom while your children are sleeping peacefully down the hall. Suddenly, you hear a crash. It sounds like a window being broken downstairs.

An intruder is entering your house!

The intruder(s) is moving through your home and coming up the stairs. You grab the gun you keep in the nightstand. As you are about to wake up your wife and secure your children, a man appears at your bedroom door. He lunges at you.

You aim the gun and fire multiple times. The man drops to the floor. Now your wife is screaming in terror. Your children come running out of their room crying.

Upon a brief investigation and realizing the threat is over, you pick up the phone to call 911.

Your heart is racing. You begin to feel ill from the massive amount of adrenalin in your bloodstream. The 911 operator answers, “911. What is your emergency?”

Now what? 

• What do you tell 911?
• You know you had no choice but will the police see it that way?
• What will you say to a skeptical investigator?
• What should you NOT say?
• Will you be arrested?
• Is there an aggressive prosecutor in your area who doesn’t like people owning guns?
• Can you afford a lawyer if charges are brought against you?
• What happens if the DA declines to charge you, but the intruder’s family brings a civil suit against you?
• How will you survive the legal, financial and psychological aftermath?

One wrong word, one bit of evidence that doesn’t look right to investigators, and you can find yourself under arrest facing criminal and civil prosecution.
