A Jay man pleads guilty in federal court to murder for shooting and killing his mother and assault with intent to commit murder for wounding a second victim.
Federal prosecutors say Christopher Weeley admitted he shot and killed his mother, Annie Weeley and shot a second family member two times.
The Delaware County Sheriff’s Office got a call about shots being fired inside a home on March 6, 2021 and the deputy found Annie Weeley on the floor, shot in the chest and another family member on the couch, shot in the stomach and lower back.
Annie Weeley didn’t make it and the other victim had emergency surgery. Deputies found the suspect about an hour later and was arrested.
They say he told investigators where he discarded the .22 caliber revolver and deputies retrieved it.
