Dustin Stewart, 29, reportedly fled the scene after Sarah McKinley shot and killed his accomplice Justin Martin while the two tried to break into her home on New Year's Eve. Stewart reportedly told police that Martin knew Sarah McKinley's husband recently died of cancer and they expected to find prescription pain pills in the home. Stewart has been charged with murder for his role in the botched break-in.

Authorities say she will not face charges. McKinley called 911 during the incident and asked the operator if she could shoot the men. "They said I couldn't shoot him until he was inside the house," said McKinley. "So I waited until he got in the door and then I shot him."

Attorney says McKinley was within her rights to shoot Martin

Local attorney Doug Friesen says the Make My Day Law protects someone in their home. "The simple fact that you're unauthorized in the home is enough that allows the homeowner to use deadly force," said Friesen. "Without ascertaining whether there is a weapon involved or not."
