Thirty-four-year-old Patsy Long of Deep Water was pronounced dead
Saturday evening after being shot in the chest with a .22-caliber
handgun. Her husband -- Ronald Long -- fired the shot
from the inside of their home after several unsuccessful efforts to
punch a hole through the exterior wall using other means.Advertisement
Henry County Sheriff's Deputies say the woman was hit by the second of
two shots fired by her husband.
Investigators say a person involved in such a case normally would be
charged with manslaughter, but that was up to the
prosecutor.
If there isn't a charge for "Criminal Stupidity Causing Death" there
should be.

So, is he impressed with the caliber of picture he's getting from the new
dish?
Hmm, wonder if we'll find out he was listening to rounds of "When are
you going to be done???" when he made that second hole?

Oh yeah, that's the first thing I thought of when I read it. Regardless of
the situation, don't shoot anything but humans or animals...... from now on.

The *second* shot? She must not have known what was going on and
didn't get out of there fast enough. Good lord, this is horrifying
and ridiculous. The wrong person was eliminated from the gene pool.
