"Can i shoot the intruder if he gets into my home?"

"I CANT TELL YOU TO DO THAT BUT YOU DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO PROTECT YOUR BABY."

and yes... it is OK to shoot and kill an intruder, both the woman and the 911 operator acted within the confines of the law.

bury the intruder in a cheap cemetery plot and go back to raising the baby.

One thing's for certain the intruder won't be doing that again. Kudos to the operator and the mom.

Good for her! And, as GR said, the operator didn't actually tell her it was okay to shoot, but she did say what she was allowed to, and she said the right thing. The other intruder is probably grateful he's alive.

Well guess it's obvious that you shouldn't screw around with a widow mom armed with a 12 gauge shotgun.

Legal or not, shooting an intruder must be a terrible thing to live with. I hope she can deal with it or get help dealing with it.
