What is Wyoming's policy on the use of deadly force in self-defense?

It's not allowed under any circumstances
Allowed only when facing serious bodily injury or death
Allowed to prevent any criminal offense
Allowed only within one's home

The correct answer is: Allowed only when facing serious bodily injury or death

Wyoming's policy on the use of deadly force in self-defense is not as strict as option A suggests. It is allowed in certain situations as opposed to not being allowed under any circumstances. Additionally, option C is incorrect as deadly force cannot be used to prevent any criminal offense, only to protect oneself from serious bodily injury or death. Lastly, option D is incorrect as Wyoming law specifically states that deadly force can be used outside of one's home in self-defense. Therefore, the best and most accurate response is B.
