From Fort Pierce’s TCPalm.com of April 12, 2006
Two Martin County deaths deemed acts of self-defense

Authorities have deemed two separate cases first investigated as homicides as actual acts of self-defense, police said Wednesday.

In one incident, Stuart police evidence led state prosecutors to determined Daniel George Griffin, 67, was protecting himself when he was confronted in his home by the man whose wife he was allegedly having an affair with, Sgt. Marty Jacobson reported.

Barry Nordstrum, 47, allegedly broke into Griffin's home June 25 about 9 p.m. in the Circle Bay Condominiums and found the man with his wife.

That's when Griffin grabbed a gun and shot Nordstrum to death. The wife, who was present, was not hurt.

(The second incident did not involve a gun)
