Paul I think they meant "hit" as in shot successfully vs. shot-at-and-missed. :) The discrepancy seems to be between some officers involved in the '86 incident and the man who was chief at that time- the then DA is now an elected official and has not responded to requests for information so far as I know. The "official report" and the former chief's memory says that she shot her brother once while asking something like, "How do you unload this thing"- implying that it was an accident. The officers remember that she shot him in during an argument, that she emptied the shotgun of 3 rounds, that she ran from the scene and pointed the gun at at least one witness, and so forth. The chief from '86 also stated that the fact that her mother was on some official board with the police force had no bearing on the outcome as the decision to not press charges was strictly a decision made by the DA based on a lack of evidence. He stated, "check the record". The records have disappeared, apparently. Tim _______________________________ Timothy O.
