## Resource

In Titusville, Florida, a long-standing neighborhood feud between William Woodward and his neighbors escalated into a horrific double murder. Following weeks of verbal abuse and threats, Woodward, an Army veteran, claimed to be on a military mission when he low crawled across the street to open fire on his unarmed neighbors. While Woodward argued that his actions were a justified defense of his family under stand your ground laws, investigators discovered he had fabricated his combat history and traumatic brain injury. Despite his claims of suffering from PTSD, the court found his calculated ambush to be a premeditated act of vengeance rather than legal self-defense. Ultimately, a jury convicted Woodward of second-degree murder, and he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
