JURY SENTENCES MAN TO 10 YEARS AFTER BEING SHOWN VIDEO OF HIM FATALLY SHOOTING WIFE
An all-women jury, which is rare but can happen, sentenced a man to 10 years in prison for the murder of his wife after being shown a video of the shooting. Now, the couple’s daughter is finding the strength to tell her mother’s story.
“Alright, goodbye. You’re (going to) meet Jesus,” Carey Birmingham told his wife, Patricia Birmingham, before he shot her with his gun outside their home in Spring.
“I hope it was worth it,” he said.
The shooting happened while the couple’s daughter, Olivia, was at school.
“I lost both my parents that day. My dad died that day, too, because the person who did that to my mom and my father aren’t the same person,” Olivia said.
Patricia and Carey had roughly a 30-minute argument leading up to the shooting.
