How does Indiana law treat the use of deadly force in self-defense?

  1. It follows the 'Stand Your Ground' principle

  2. It is strictly prohibited

  3. It is allowed only within one's home

  4. It requires retreat whenever possible

The correct answer is: It follows the 'Stand Your Ground' principle

Indiana law follows the 'Stand Your Ground' principle for self-defense, which means that individuals have the right to use deadly force to protect themselves or others without retreating first. This option is correct. B is incorrect because Indiana law allows for the use of deadly force in self-defense under certain circumstances. C is incorrect because Indiana law does not restrict the use of deadly force in self-defense to only within one's home. D is incorrect because Indiana law does not require individuals to retreat before using deadly force in self-defense.
