How does Arizona law address the use of deadly force in self-defense?

  1. It is permitted only inside one's home

  2. It is strictly prohibited

  3. It is permitted if there is reasonable belief of an imminent threat

  4. It requires a warning shot to be fired first

The correct answer is: It is permitted if there is reasonable belief of an imminent threat

Arizona law allows for the use of deadly force in self-defense if there is a reasonable belief of an imminent threat. Options A and D are incorrect because they impose specific limitations on where and how deadly force can be used, which may not always be applicable in a dangerous situation. Option B is incorrect because Arizona law does allow for the use of deadly force in certain circumstances. Therefore, C is the most accurate and comprehensive answer.
