    Gotta ask though, if it needs to be shot to go off, is that really a booby trap? I have draino in my house, that isn’t a trap. Maybe you have to put a sign on it saying don’t shoot?

      It would absolutely, 100% go to trial, and the prosecution could easily prove an intent to harm.

      As much as the Better Call Saul kinds of legal arguments look clever on TV, in reality the law is much more about vibes and how people interpret what happened.
