Mulher é acusada em Idaho após atirar em homem que a desafiou durante discussão

Diane Wetherbee, de 65 anos, enfrenta acusações criminais em Idaho após supostamente atirar na perna de um homem com uma pistola .380 que ele mesmo lhe entregou durante uma discussão enquanto bebiam. Em seguida, ela foi para a cama e adormeceu, segundo documentos judiciais. Os policiais a prenderam após encontrá-la dormindo no local.

Na noite de sábado, em Challis, Idaho, Diane Wetherbee, de 65 anos, e um homem bebiam em uma casa quando começaram a discutir, de acordo com documentos judiciais citados pelo Law&Crime e pelo East Idaho News. O homem teria entregado a Wetherbee uma pistola .380 e dito para ela atirar nele. Ela supostamente disparou, atingindo-o na perna. Depois disso, Wetherbee foi para um quarto no andar de cima e caiu no sono. Outra pessoa que estava na casa ouviu um único disparo, mas não presenciou o incidente. Os policiais chegaram à residência por volta das 23h23 e encontraram Wetherbee dormindo. Eles a levaram sob custódia, e a pistola foi localizada no chão do quarto, em meio a poças de sangue. Uma busca revelou mais sangue e um par de botas sujas de sangue perto da porta dos fundos. Wetherbee confessou o disparo enquanto era levada para a Cadeia do Condado de Custer, onde foi fichada. Ela foi acusada de crime de lesão corporal agravada com uso de arma letal e está detida sob fiança de 25 mil dólares. Uma ordem de restrição a proíbe de se aproximar da vítima. Wetherbee tem audiência preliminar marcada para 30 de março e pode pegar até 15 anos de prisão se for condenada.
