A trial by jury concluded with a couple being found ‘not guilty,’ of deliberately shooting the woman’s mother. This was just as well because the man had already been in prison pending trial since 2009. The man, however, was found guilty of the illegal possession of a firearm.
During the trial, the defence lawyer claimed that it was, in fact, the 13-year-old son that blew the mother-in-law away with a gun that he just happened to find in the street. Unlucky 13, indeed!
The Public Prosecutor had been rather keen to slap 13 years’ imprisonment on the wife and 14.5 on the husband, but on the last day of the trial he withdrew his recommendation concerning the wife.
