What specific type of information, beyond basic details, is absolutely crucial to provide law enforcement following a self-defense incident?

Beyond basic details, the specific type of information absolutely crucial to provide law enforcement following a self-defense incident is a 'clear and detailed articulation of your perception of the imminent threat'. This includes describing the attacker's specific actions and words that led you to reasonably believe you were in immediate danger of death or serious bodily harm. This requires focusing on the 'subjective reasonableness' of your fear and articulating why you believed the force you used was necessary to prevent that harm. Providing this context is critical for establishing a legitimate self-defense claim and differentiating your actions from an unlawful assault.
