From what I've read, no, they generally don't get convicted. However, it's still horrible to be accused of murder after being forced to defend oneself, not to mention the potential costs of defending oneself in court.
I seem to recall one incident where the homeowner was charged with striking the burglar/home invader with a cricket bat. I don't know what happened afterwards...
...I also recall reading somewhere that the only self defense tool legal in England is a personal alarm.
Why is it ok to charge someone with a crime until the investigators sort it out. Where did the presumption of innocence go.
A man Is attacked in his home, in his kitchen by a burglar with a screwdriver. He grabs a knife and fights the burglar off, stabbing him. The burglar runs out of the house collapses and dies. The homeowner called the police The homeowner is in jail charged with murder. This was on the BBC's website.

you live in the USA...a stranger breaks into your house and threatens you...you shoot and kill the person...
will the police confiscate your firearm?
will the deceased's relatives bring suit against you?
will you have legal expenses?
Yes, this is exactly where the US is headed.Yes. I was just blown away by it and wondered, "Is this where America is headed"
From what I read kids that defend themselves in school can be punished. That is teaching them to not defend themselves. The kids grow up thinking self defense is bad. Larry
