The Michigan State Supreme Court is looking at the 2013 shooting of Renisha McBride and will decide whether to grant an appeal in the case.
Theodore Wafer, 57, was found guilty of second-degree murder in the 2013 fatal shooting of McBride, 19, on the front porch of his Dearborn Heights house.
At issue is a jury instruction that Wafer wanted saying he feared being harmed because he thought McBride was trying to break in.
The judge ruled that the evidence didn’t support the instruction, but the state Supreme Court issued an order Wednesday saying it will hear arguments about whether the lack of that instruction violated Wafer’s rights
