What is Idaho's stance on 'Castle Doctrine' and home defense?

Use of deadly force is only permitted outside the home
Idaho has no Castle Doctrine laws
Use of deadly force is permitted without a duty to retreat in your home
Use of force is only permitted with a duty to retreat

The correct answer is: Use of deadly force is permitted without a duty to retreat in your home

The correct answer is C because Idaho has a "Stand Your Ground" law, which allows the use of deadly force without a duty to retreat if someone believes that they, or someone else, is in immediate danger of harm in their own home. Option A is incorrect because it implies that deadly force can only be used outside of the home, which is not the case in Idaho. Option B is also incorrect because, as mentioned, Idaho does have a "Stand Your Ground" law in place. Option D is incorrect because it suggests that the use of force is only permitted if there is a way for the person to safely retreat before using deadly force, which is not the case in Idaho.
