2022 Ohio 3965

Syllabus

The State has the burden of proof where the affirmative defense of self-defense is properly raised. To carry this burden, the State need only disprove one element of self-defense. Evaluations of the amount of force used by the accused can be relevant in determining whether self-defense through non-deadly force is applicable in a case.
