An Alabama woman has been charged with murder after she fatally
shot a man — but she says that he had beaten and raped her and
she shot him in self-defense under the state’s Stand Your Ground
law.
Brittany Smith, 32, shot an acquaintance, Todd Smith, three
times in the kitchen of her home in Stevenson, Alabama. She was
arrested and charged with murder in his death.
But when she was interviewed by police, she said that she had
been raped by the man and said the man was threatening to kill
her and her brother.
On Monday, Jackson County Circuit Judge Jenifer Holt rejected
the “Stand Your Ground” self-defense claim, citing
inconsistencies in Brittany’s testimony.
“Upon consideration of all the evidence, the court finds that
the defendant has given inconsistent accounts of the events
surrounding Todd’s death, beginning with the 911 call … and has
attempted to alter or destroy evidence,” the judge wrote,
according to AL.com. “The court further finds that the
defendant’s testimony about material facts was significantly at
odds with the physical evidence, exhibits and other witness
testimony.”
According to documents obtained by NBC News, Todd and Brittany
were having a conversation in her home in January 2018. At some
point, Brittany alleged, Todd “got really mad” and began choking
her. Brittany’s lawyer later said she was choked unconscious and
then dragged to a bedroom where Todd raped her.
Brittany then told police that Todd had threatened to kill her
if she went to the police.
After the alleged assault, Brittany and her brother took Todd to
the store to buy cigarettes. While inside the store, Brittany
allegedly told the cashier that Todd had raped her. After the
cashier told Brittany’s brother about the alleged rape, the
brother went to Brittany’s house armed with a gun to confront
Todd. At some point, the two men began fighting; Brittany said
Todd was holding her brother in a headlock while threatening to
kill them. Brittany told police she then grabbed her gun from
the counter and shot Todd three times.
He was pronounced dead at the hospital.
A nurse who treated Brittany at the hospital testified that she
had bruises, bite marks and signs of strangulation, but they
could not determine definitively if a rape had occurred.
According to AL.com, the nurse testified that most sexual
assault cases lack physical proof.
According to CBS News, Brittany faces life in prison if she is
convicted.
Brittany’s attorney, Ron Smith (who is not related to either
Brittany or Todd), told NBC News that he plans to appeal the
judge’s decision and hopes to have the charges dismissed before
her Feb. 10 trial.
