Father Who Shot Wife to Protect Children Charged with Murder

Original: Father Shoots Wife Three Times to Protect His Children, Then Is Charged with Murder#news #fpy #usa #crime #court

A father in the US who shot his wife three times, saying he acted to protect his children, has been charged with murder. The case is drawing attention because of the tension between his claim of defending his kids and prosecutors' decision to pursue a murder charge as the case moves through court.

Why now: The contrast between a self-defence claim and a murder charge makes the case polarising and widely shared.
