Attempted murder trial. Unusual defense.

mako88sb · 09-19-13, 12:51 PM

Just wondering if this guys defense has been used before. Shortly before the incident, his ex-wife told him she was going to take him for everything he was worth. It quickly got ugly from there with the victim being chased, shot at and hit twice before neighbors intervened. The accused insists he only had blanks in his .44 magnum and that he wasn't aiming at the victim. He was just trying to scare her so he shouldn't be accused of attempted murder. I can't believe this guy would think anybody is going to buy that load of crap but I suppose stranger things have happened.
