When is it legal to use deadly force in self-defense in Kentucky?

  1. When you feel threatened

  2. To protect property

  3. When facing an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm

  4. To detain a suspected criminal

The correct answer is: When facing an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm

In Kentucky, a person can use deadly force in self-defense only when facing an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm. This means that the person must reasonably believe that the only way to protect themselves from death or serious harm is by using deadly force. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not specify an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm, which is the criteria for using deadly force in self-defense in Kentucky. Feeling threatened, protecting property, or detaining a suspected criminal does not necessarily meet this criteria and could potentially result in criminal charges for the individual using deadly force.
