We are not given executioner status when we are under threat of death or great bodily harm. We are allowed to use deadly force until the threat (not the person) no longer exists. Going only off what is seen in the video, it’s hard to find any legality for the last shot.

So who is the judge of when the threat no longer existed? You, the judge watching the video or the good samaritan eliminating that threat ?

With that being said, what would have been your response while under the duress and adrenaline coursing thru you body?

You can't answer that because it's unlike you have ever been in a life or death situation like that where you are about to be killed by a gun wielding ex-felon whose record is being involved in a prior murder.........

Breathe in, breathe out. The judge will be the legal system. The same one that gives the shooter the justification to use deadly force based on the crime being committed. Based on the video alone, how many more head shots after the 9th would you consider legal? As for what I would have done based on the video, I suspect I would have stopped between the 4th-6th shot and hauled ass for another exit (kitchen area possibly?). Being in public, I would have not wanted to fire more shots than necessary and after the threat was stopped, (assuming there isn't more than the video can offer) I would want to move away from the vicinity of the offender. To pretend you have any capability to know what situations I've personally been in is silly. Not my quote, but sums up my view: "Be tough enough to protect your life, but smart enough to protect your freedom"
