Random Thoughts

Just so we’re clear, I’m talking strictly in a legal sense. Morally, it makes all the sense, but morality and the law aren’t always compatible.  And given that you’re based out of Ireland, I’m not sure how different the homicide laws there are to America (or California, since murder is a state level charge in the US.)

I see.  Yes, I think Butch could mount a justifiable homicide defense.

1.  Vince was a known criminal.
2.  Vince worked for a crime syndicate.
3.  Butch can demonstrate that said syndicate was out to kill him.

All of these make for a pretty plausible 'I was in fear for my life' defense.

By the way, did you notice that Vince coming out of a toilet never ends well?  He comes out of the toilet, and finds that Mia has OD'd.  He comes out of the toilet, and Honey Bunny and Pumpkin are robbing the diner.  He comes out of the toilet, and Butch kills him.
