And even then, a slick prosecuter could nail you for murder. Point is, you may have to prove his intended destination was your children's bedroom, and not simply trying to flee. The prosecution can make a jury believe that the intruder was retreating and you chose to kill him anyway. All is not cut and dry when shooting an intruder in your home. Get him to turn around..then blast away.
