Under Iowa law, when is it justifiable to use deadly force?

  1. To protect property

  2. To prevent a serious crime

  3. In self-defense when fearing serious injury or death

  4. All situations if feeling threatened

The correct answer is: In self-defense when fearing serious injury or death

In Iowa, the use of deadly force is limited to situations where there is a fear of serious injury or death. This means that options A and B are incorrect because they do not provide a clear and immediate threat to personal safety. Option D is also incorrect because it suggests that deadly force can be justified in any situation, which is not the case in Iowa. Only in self-defense when fearing serious injury or death is the use of deadly force legally justifiable under Iowa law.
