i it was we lost our our son, too. sorry. when they brought us in to identify his body, it was horrific. looking at his beautiful body, no longer complete, it was terrible. i think i screamed for hours. reporter: diren dede would never make it to his 18th birthday. i thought it was a joke. i was, like, there s no way possible. nothing like this has remotely happened to me or kind of anything in missoula growing up. it was obviously a shock. it was just, like, the last person that would come to my mind, i guess. reporter: diren s soccer coach assumed that whatever happened to his star player, it wasn t diren s fault. i m trying to imagine, did he go to a party and get shot by another kid?
yourself, your home, your family? was even that on trial now? dogma and kaarma were about to collide. coming up this is your house. you defend it as you choose to defend it. he knew that it was a kid coming in his garage. battle lines are drawn. and a revealing recording. and then i heard the kid yelling, no, no, no, no. please. did diren plead for his life? when dateline extra continues. you re not taking these. hey, hey, hey! you re not taking those. woah, woah! you re not taking that. come with me. you re not taking that. you re not taking that. you re not taking that. mom, i m taking the subaru. don t be late. even when we re not there to keep them safe, our subaru outback will be.

i mean, did you think to yourself, oh, my god, we didn t tell him how dangerous it could be. but no one knew. no one would be like, hey, don t walk into that garage. you never know if someone is going to shoot you. reporter: robby told police diren had done it before but never taken cash or valuable property. he wasn t a criminal. he was, like, a kid. he was a kid trying to have fun and fit in the group doing what the other guys do, trying to be part of them. reporter: was it really that innocent? true or false. diren was committing a crime. he was. entering somebody else s home, even their garage, that s a crime? yes. even if the door s open? yep. reporter: and if kaarma s life was threatened, he had the right to shoot, didn t he? but as police went over kaarma s story about what happened just before the confrontation, something stood out. when kaarma was describing how his wife first noticed someone was approaching their garage.
they just didn t understand how that worked in montana. reporter: but this is america, not germany. aren t you allowed to protect yourself, your home, your family? was even that on trial now? dogma and kaarma were about to collide. coming up this is your house. you defend it as you choose to defend it. he knew that it was a kid coming in his garage. battle lines are drawn. and a revealing recording. and then i heard the kid yelling, no, no, no, no. please. did diren plead for his life? when dateline extra continues. the lexus rx, rx hybrid and rx f sport. this is the rx.elevated. get up to $5,000 customer cash on select 2016 models.
