What I have a problem with is we seem to have a woman who shot her husband, hid his body, and now, because she got caught and used abuse as the reason, people here are coming to her defense. She killed her husband and hid his body! It seems to me like an excuse to curry favor with women and animal lovers. Sounds to me like a lawyer gave her the direct lines to use in order to get the jury to acquit. I can see it now " If I can get one woman who has been abused or one animal lover on the jury, you will get off". All we know for sure is that this woman committed murder and too many people are making excuses for her. I thought at FR we thought more logically than that.
God, by you and some others way of thinking, a woman could having an affair and have her boyfriend kill the husband for the bank account money. They could hide his body, clean up the scene, and just say "hey he was gonna attack me, he wanted to kill my animals, and oh yeah, he was a hunter too" if they were ever found out.
I believe she turned herself in on her own.
