‘I done made a mess’: Man shoots 75-year-old wife dead while she is sleeping in her own bed

A Georgia man who pleaded guilty to shooting his wife in the head as she slept will spend more than a decade in prison.

On the morning of Sept. 7, 2022, James Wilson III, 77, called 911 to report the shooting and admitted to the McDuffie County Sheriff that he killed his wife. During a press conference held days after Wilson was arrested for the murder of his wife, 75-year-old Virginia "Sue" Wilson, Sheriff Logan Marshall said that he was one of the first to arrive at the scene. Marshall and his deputies were greeted by the sight of James Wilson in his front yard, on the ground, holding a gun to his chest.
 
Terry Lloyd, an Assistant District Attorney for the Toombs Judicial Circuit, recounted the confrontation in court on Thursday, saying that James Wilson reportedly told Marshall, "I done made a mess, I killed her."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

His atty. should have gone for the Joe Biden plea, he was too old to prosecute. :whistle:
