Byron David Smith killings

The Byron David Smith killings occurred on Thanksgiving Day of 2012, when Haile Kifer, 18, and her cousin, Nicholas Brady, 17, broke into the home of Byron David Smith, 65, in Little Falls, Minnesota, in the United States. Smith, armed with a Ruger Mini-14, shot the teens separately and minutes apart as they entered the basement where he was, later stating to police he was worried about them being armed. The case sparked debate over the so-called "Castle doctrine", which allows a homeowner to defend his home with lethal force. The prosecution alleged that Smith's actions show aspects of premeditation and he used excessive force in relation to the threat. He was convicted and sentenced to life in prison.〔("Little Falls Man Found Guilty On All Four Counts Of Murder" ), CBS News Channel 4 WCCO Minnesota, 29 Apr 2014.〕

Smith, 64, was retired from the U.S. State Department and had a history of international travel to Moscow, Bangkok and Beijing.〔 Smith's brother described him as a retired security engineering officer.〔Forliti, Amy. ("Minn. man charged in teens' slayings admits firing 'more shots than I needed'" ), Associated Press, November 26, 2012.〕
Prior to the incident, Byron Smith had been burglarized at least half a dozen times over the past few months. Among the items stolen were thousands of dollars in cash, the watch his father had received after spending nearly a year as a POW in World War II, medals and ribbons Smith had earned in the Air Force during the Vietnam War, several firearms, and jewelry. Smith began routinely wearing a holster with a loaded gun inside his home. There is some evidence that Kifer and Brady committed at least a couple of the previous break-ins and were being investigated for prior burglaries, including one earlier on the day they were killed.〔 Smith installed a security system to protect himself.
