He was convicted on about 5 different things,

As I posted previously,it sounds like more than a case of simply shooting two dogs.

they said if he had done it right in his yard it would have been a bit less harsh, but he still would have caught the short end of the stick.

If he had killed the dogs in his own yard while they were threatening the children,and then called the police,he could likely have avoided any charges being laid at all.Who would convict someone for shooting dogs that were threatening his children on his own property.

He found out that you can not take the law into your own hands even if you are defending your life or your children's lives.

But since the dogs let him grab them by the neck and load them into his truck without him being bitten,he would have a hard time proving that the dogs were a threat to anyone.And since he hauled them away,they obviously weren't a threat to the children when he shot them.
It sounds like he made it very easy for the police by destroying any alibi that he might have had,while creating a case against himself.
