Woman testifies she shot husband after threat to kill
In a German military court case, a American woman described threats and an assault by her husband Ybarbo two days before she shot him in the home. She said she fired when he advanced during a confrontation, and argued the act was in defense of life. The case hinges on German law versus U.S. military rule and potential charges of manslaughter or second degree murder.
