In State v. Spillers, 2007 UT 13, 23, 152 P.3d 315, the Court held that a criminal defendant was entitled to a jury instruction on imperfect self-defense manslaughter because the evidence presented by the defendant could have been interpreted by the jury to establish imperfect self-defense. The Court also held that the defendant was entitled to a jury instruction on extreme emotional distress manslaughter because "a rational jury could, adopting Defendant's version of events, find that he was experiencing extreme emotional distress for which there was a reasonable explanation or excuse when he shot the victim."
