Affirmed. See Garrett v. State, 148 So. 3d 466, 472 (Fla. 1st DCA 2014)
(finding there was no fundamental error in giving instructions on a duty
to retreat because “[t]here was ample evidence presented for the jury to
find that from the beginning of the incident, [the defendant] did not have
a reasonable belief that deadly force was necessary to prevent an imminent
threat against him, especially after [the victim] dropped his rifle and [the
defendant] continued to shoot”).
STEVENSON, FORST and KLINGENSMITH, JJ., concur.
