Answer / Rakesh Kumar Vishwakarma
Under duress, the perpetrator may have a potential defense against murder charges. However, each case varies depending on jurisdiction and circumstances. In the first scenario, both victims could be considered as threatened, potentially reducing guilt to manslaughter. In the second scenario, the threat is only directed at the shooter, making the justification for self-defense more tenuous. The third scenario does not involve a direct threat against the shooter.
