The only thing that really bothers me about the whole thing is the apparent ease she had with doing the whole reenactment. I'd like to think that if I just gunned someone down at point blank range, justified or not, I'd have a bit of trouble picking up a gun and pretending to do it again for the benefit of a news story. That was a little bit creepy.
I think she was calm because she was expecting this to happen again, with the two perps trying to get in her trailer again. Her recount is very reminiscient of the NY subway shooter who shot the guys who begging (or demanding) money.
