NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) – A Tennessee House representative has proposed a bill that would require the state to reimburse certain people found innocent in murder cases.
House Representative Bruce Griffey (R-Paris) has introduced legislation based on the recent murder case against Kyle Rittenhouse. The bill is called “Kyle’s Law” and aims to “strengthen protection of self-defense and second amendment rights in Tennessee,” according to Griffey’s press release.
In short, anyone accused of murder and found not guilty, but determined to have acted in lawful self-defense, would be reimbursed by the state for certain costs, such as lost wages and legal fees.
