OUTSTANDING!!! I love the comments too! 
You could guess this was going to happen:
This story has the DA saying the shootings were justified and that no charges will be filed against the residents. Here's part of the story:

EDIT:Family and friends of the two men said they believed there was more to the story than a botched burglary.
This story has the DA saying the shootings were justified and that no charges will be filed against the residents. Here's part of the story:
The two men were shot during an attempted burglary of the house, after being surprised by the residents, as they returned home. The burglars held them at gun point and threatened to kill them.
According to Lee, the Marine grabbed for the gun when Skinner looked away and a struggle for the weapon followed.
"The Marine resident was able to kick Skinner and free the shotgun from Skinner's grip. Skinner came at the Marine resident who was on the floor and the Marine resident two times.
The Marine resident then found Everette struggling with another Marine who was a guest in the home and shot Everette once in the rear end.
The whole altercation happened within 15 minutes, Jacksonville Police arrived on the scene at 1:55 am to find Skinner and Everette dead in the home.
Lee says the shooting of Everette and Skinner falls under North Carolina statute 14-51.2, commonly referred to as the castle doctrine.
"Based upon my review of the facts of this case, the occupants of the residence were justified in using deadly force against both everette and skinner because the actions of everette and skinner caused the occupants to reasonably believe it necessary to use deadly force to protect their lives."
The two Camp Lejeune Marines and one civilian of 107 sustained substantial injuries during the attack. lee says they were lucky to survive.
"The three occupants are fortunate that they did not suffer even greater serious injury or death. The actions of these three individuals in defending themselves may very well have saved their lives."

Well, they BOTH died from shotgun wounds, from a shotgun the suspects apparently found inside the house and was probably loaded with buckshot and/or slugs, knowing the fellow Marines I know, that's probably how it was loaded. One of the suspects died from being shot in the butt, so you see, pelvic shots CAN be deadly, EVEN if they're on the backside (and there's lots of wounds from Vietnam to document you CAN die from shots to the anterior/back pelvic region). If nothing else, he WAS NOT running away from the crime scene.
I'm still waiting for the suspect's supporters (who're likely hoping for a similar scenario to Trevon, which hasn't occurred), so I guess they just shut up. Perhaps they discovered the Marines who fought, disarmed and reversed the shotgun on the suspects, might NOT be Lilly-white, so it ruins their hoped-for scenario of a race-issue of another shooting of black men by white men. I assume their lawyer told them they have nothing to talk about and to simply shut the hell up.
