If they subsequently die of a disease, a successful prosecution would depend on the prosecutor convincing a jury that you knew or should reasonably have known that your hex would be effective. | |

There is no law that makes it legal to shoot a person just because he has entered your property. All the same issues regarding self-defence, and defences still apply, | |
