Stupid defense IMHO

Nice.

Drunk and high on dog medicine (WTF!?) he shoots and kills his father, then he kicks his mother in the stomach.

Oh, but he wanted to kill himself not his father, even though he apparently shot him dead from the loft.

What a POS.

“My husband was standing in front of the fireplace and he said, like he was in pain, ‘(Expletive) damn,'” Marilyn Smith told jurors. “He looked up into the loft and said, ‘Kris,' and then he died.”
