A woman shot and killed her husband because he made an obscene gesture at her, according to police.
Tracey Grissom, 30, from Northport, Alabama, was charged with first-degree murder in the death of her husband Hunter Daniel Grissom, 28.
Sheriff Ted Sexton says the couple had a history of domestic violence.
According to the arrest warrant, Grissom was driving to work when she saw her ex-husband at a boat landing.
She stopped to take a photo of him for litigation related to their divorce.
Sheriff Sexton says several witnesses watched as the man made an obscene gesture and the woman opened fire around 8am yesterday morning.
Authorities say the woman called 911 after using all her ammunition and told them she shot her ex-husband.

yeah Probably wanted to buy bulk.
The most obscene jesture i could ever imagine making to a women is “will you marry me”,the thought she might say yes scares the hell out of me.:)
Train your dog to do it. If you don’t have a dog that can do it, it is worth you while to get that can and train it to fetch beer out of the refer.
Most likely that will upset your wife - having a dog sniffing in the refer - and she will insist on getting your beer herself.
Uh, just a suggestion.
Might as well just cut your hair into a spiky lesbian buzzcut and put on 120 pounds, missy. Have a swell time in prison.
Agreed. Pretty young woman with the 'thousand yard stare', just hurts the heart.
Yeah, when they were dating Hunter was just the sweetest guy. Poor Tracey had no idea what she was getting into. No idea!
So she’s available then...
I agree. She looks SO sad.
Alas, I can't tell it here.
Those are sad eyes. Very sad. Crazy doesn’t even compute.
Celibate can be a good thing. A sane kind of non-gun-shooting thing.
Alone is good. And fairly safe. In cases where N<>0.

No opinion offered... just remarking about the usual track these threads go. Looks like this story is too ugly even for the typical wise cracks.
She married him. What does that say about her?
So you don’t think evil is capable of hiding itself?
My ex-husband had everyone fooled. My pastor, my church, and me.
She didn’t hit the boat did she? BTW...NOT Guilty!
He spent less than a day in jail and was released on $71,000 bail.
There seem to be no further updates on this charge.
Hunter Grissom has also been previously charged with second-degree marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, and other charges.
Tracey Grissom's bail was $60,000.
Maybe Tracey was just trying to shoot off his finger.
Reason #1 inmates at the insane asylum cannot be allowed to marry each other.
If he was a brute with his wife, she solved the problem.
The eyes tell a story.
I was going to make a humorous comment, but after reading the whole story, I think the bastard got what he deserved.
I can very easily see how a woman who has been subjected to that kind of treatment might decide that a leering grin and an obscene gesture were the collective last straw.
