any recovery on a wrongful death action against Warren (D).
FACTS: P, who had been dating D's daughter for several months. P went to the home of D's
daughter who lived with her two children within sight of D's residence. P threw a large

through the broken window and unlocking the door. Inside the home, P argued with D's
daughter and 'jerked' her arm. D arrived with his loaded shotgun. D heard screaming and saw
P standing inside the door. D told P to get out of the house. P exited and stood on the
front porch. D was prodding D in the back with the shotgun when it discharged and killed P.
