Armed Attorneys Richard Hayes and Leslie Cross discuss when calling 911 after a self-defense incident can protect you — and when making that call could create serious legal complications. In many legitimate defensive force cases, calling 911 immediately can help establish you as the victim, secure medical aid, preserve evidence, and avoid accusations of fleeing the scene or tampering with evidence. A well-handled 911 call can later become powerful evidence in your favor.
But there are situations where dialing 911 may not be the smartest move. What if the threat is still active? What if no one was injured and the aggressor fled? What if you say too much while adrenaline is pumping? Richard and Leslie break down the legal risks, tactical considerations, and real-world consequences surrounding one of the most important decisions someone may make after a defensive encounter.
