self defense?

Man comes home in response to a call from his son about a stranger lurking on their property. The lurker had pulled a knife on the son.

Trespasser refuses to leave and 911 is called. Witnesses corroborate that the property owner fired a warning shot into the ground, whereupon the trespasser puts his hand in his pocket and charges the property owner. Property owner shoots the perp in the head, killing him. A knife is found in the perp's pocket.

Police rule self defense. A year later the property owner is prosecuted anyway and sent to jail forever and ever.
