The surviving robber should be charged with attempted robbery. End of. The honme-owner did nothing wrong, although I personally wouldn't have killed them, just shot them in the leg.

At night, while you have a rush of adrenaline? If you hit their legs, great, but if you're firing at someone who broke into your home, beat up your stepson, and you're scared for yourself and your family, you're going to shoot at them and hit them whatever way you can. What's the easiest to hit? The upper body. Where were they shot? The upper body.
Edit: To all of those who feel that a life is more important than stuff, I agree. However, you forget one thing... the robbers were impeding on someone else's rights by trespassing on their property, they over-stepped their legal boundaries, and a person has the right to do WHATEVER THEY PLEASE to protect their home. While, the government has laid out some restrictions on that, which I feel are wrong, homeowners still are well within legal rights (and rightfully so) to use lethal force when they feel threatened.
I'm glad you people aren't in my country.
whoa.
