“He _was_ an intruder.”

Not if he was invited by a resident of the house, which seems to be the case.

That may be a problem.

Your kid can invite someone into the house and you can’t go shooting their friends that have been invited into your home.

Minor has no legal rights to invite anyone over. Sad story.

It was three in the morning. Minors have no authority to invite someone into a house they don’t own...particularly at threebin the morning

He gave him ample warning from what I understand... to explain himself... as a father, he was protecting his family, daughter, from harm... personally, would have beat him silly

Not from the father’s perspective. Since he is the one who utilized lethal force against a person in his home, the only proper legal question is “what was going through HIS mind?” I would say that from his perspective, the boyfriend was an intruder. He had no particular reason to believe otherwise.

This is a tragedy all around. The girl will feel guilty for the rest of her life. The guy’s parents and the rest of his family will always feel the loss. The father will also feel guilty for the rest of his life, and his relationship with his daughter will never be the same. There are no winners here.

He knew that he did not, and would not, have permission of the head of the home. He acted like an intruder when called out. Of borderline age, he was practically a statutory rapist. The one who invited him knew she did not have viable authority for the request, and absolutely would be cancelled if known by one who should have been consulted.

To summarize:
Rapists found in daughters’ bedrooms get shot.
