Jody says that she grabbed her daughter and ran out of the house. "He was yelling at me," Jody remembers, "telling me that I better not tell anybody, that nobody would believe me. That he would kill me. … The first thing I [saw] was a tent that the kids had been camping in over the weekend, and I went and put her in the tent. And I told her to stay there until I came back for her."
Jody then went back inside, got a gun and returned to the bedroom. "I went back there to get answers and to ask him, 'How could you do this to our baby?' And he just started laughing at me. … Then he came after me."
Jody then shot him dead.
Jody was arrested and charged with second-degree murder. The jury's verdict? Not guilty.
