Hey now, wasn't there a wig involved also?
I am sure for an ultra-conservative woman such as herself, that was really - demeaning to her. Along with daily assults (the way he may have talked to her or treated her) and other stuff that was alleged at trial... I can see her being mentally stressed out. That's just me. I respected the judge's decision in this case.
Also - and again someone please correct me if I am recalling things incorrectly - I believe Mary testified that she didn't mean for the gun to go off - it is obvious to me that the jury believed that.
Now, I'm the sort of person that thinks if you ever find yourself in a situation where you are so freaked out that you are holding a gun at the sleeping father of your children, you need to get yourself some help ASAP.....that said, I am not convinced that she intended to walk in there and shoot him.
Does anyone know the status of her relationship with her children? Have the grandparents been granted custody? Does Mary have rights and/or visitation? I am interested to see how that plays out.
