What is Idaho's stance on the 'Castle Doctrine' for self-defense within one's home?

  1. It fully supports it without a duty to retreat

  2. It is not recognized in Idaho

  3. It is recognized, but with a duty to retreat

  4. It only applies during nighttime

The correct answer is: It fully supports it without a duty to retreat

Idaho fully supports the 'Castle Doctrine' for self-defense within one's home without a duty to retreat. This means that individuals are legally allowed to use deadly force to defend themselves and their property without first attempting to retreat or escape. Option B is incorrect because the 'Castle Doctrine' is recognized in Idaho. Option C is incorrect because Idaho does not require a duty to retreat. Option D is incorrect because the 'Castle Doctrine' applies at any time, not just during nighttime.
