In Kentucky, the use of deadly force is legally permitted:

  1. Only when protecting personal property

  2. To prevent a serious crime

  3. When feeling threatened in a public place

  4. In self-defense or defense of another when facing an immediate threat of death or serious injury

The correct answer is: In self-defense or defense of another when facing an immediate threat of death or serious injury

It is important to note that answering A or C would be incorrect because in Kentucky, deadly force is only legally permitted in self-defense or defense of others when facing an immediate threat of death or serious injury. Answering B would also be incorrect because the use of deadly force should not be used to prevent a serious crime, but rather as a last resort to protect oneself or others in a life-threatening situation.
