Understanding Self-Defense in Violent Crime Cases

Self-defense is a legal concept that allows a person to use reasonable force to protect themselves or others from physical harm or the threat of harm. In Texas, the law recognizes the right to self-defense in certain circumstances. When facing violent crime charges, a successful self-defense argument can result in reduced charges or even dismissal of the case.

In order to successfully assert a self-defense argument, the accused must typically demonstrate that:

• They reasonably believed they were in imminent danger of bodily harm or death.
• The force used was necessary to protect themselves or others from the danger.
• The force used was proportionate to the perceived threat.
