A British woman who was shot dead by her father while visiting his home in Texas had argued with him about US President Donald Trump earlier that day, an inquest has heard.
Lucy Harrison, from Warrington in Cheshire, was shot in the chest on 10 January 2025 in Prosper, near Dallas.
Police in the town investigated the 23-year-old’s death as possible manslaughter but no criminal case was brought against Kris Harrison after a grand jury in Collin County declined to indict him.
An inquest into Lucy Harrison’s death opened earlier at Cheshire Coroner’s Court, where her boyfriend Sam Littler described the “big argument” about Trump, who was preparing to be inaugurated for his second term of office.
possible manslaughter
beyond doomed country
It’s perfectly on brand for the USA, really. This uppity woman didn’t listen to the man of the house, so he had to wave his gun around to remind her of her place. He was so distraught at his authority being questioned that his gun accidentally went off while it was pointed at his daughter. The guy feels bad, so it’s OK. Plus, as he said himself,
Kris Harrison had replied that he had two other daughters who lived with him so it [his daughter being sexually assaulted] would not upset him that much.
Couldn’t even get a grand jury indictment. No doubt the local yokels closed ranks. Made up some nonsense about it being an accident.
morbidly curious about whether the piece of shit feels any guilt at all about killing his daughter over a politician… what the fuck am i saying of course he doesn’t
Reminder that the people who lynched Ahmaud Arbery almost got away with it until they were stupid enough to release the footage of the murder, thinking it would exonerate them and people would call them heroes. Over two months with no arrests.
Did you miss the part of the article with his answer to “what if I was one of the women trump raped”?
Now that she’s associated with gun violence, she’s up for deportation. At least that’s what happens when the non-white crime victims call 911.
She was already deported to the afterlife.
Dude admitted he was an alcoholic who had already had a bottle of wine before the shooting, and they couldn’t get a manslaughter charge to at least go to trial? Being drunk and accidentally killing someone is manslaughter.
This country is so fucked up.
In religiously paternalistic Texas, killing one’s own children is a God-given biblical right.
She was slandering Dorito Jesus, if anything he’s a hero.
Harrison said he could not recall whether his finger was on the trigger.
I do not like Glocks. Quite simply, I prefer pistols with a manual safety which Glocks do not have. That said, a Glock WILL NOT FIRE unless your finger is on the trigger. A Glock’s safety mechanism is on the trigger itself.
If you are going to own a firearm, GO TO TRAINING. Trigger discipline should be muscle memory so that even piss drunk you keep your finger off the goddamn trigger until youbare ready to pull. If the guy was trained in firearm use, then he 100% murdered his daughter on purpose.
MAGA is a cult and its members are mentally ill.
Yeah, if you are going to checks notes point your gun at your daughter, at least have some goddamn checks notes trigger discipline!
I"m giving that piece of shit A LOT of leeway by assuming he wasn’t purposefully pointing the gun at her and rather just holding it to show. (That’s cutting about ten miles of slack.) If that’s what he was doing (doubtful) then he should not have had his finger on the trigger.
My gut tells me that his MAGA poisoned brain, having the impulse control impaired by alcohol, pointed the gun at her and his finger twitched, because deep down he wanted to “kill the b!t¢h” that dared insult his god emperor. The bang instantly sobered him up and broke his hateful trance. That’s when he started cryring for
mommyhis wife.absolute fucking lunacy
“Don’t aim a gun at anything you don’t want to destroy”
Texas is beyond fucked.
It’s a shame our registered Democrats don’t actually vote. We outnumber the Republicans by 1.5m.
