“… 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.

… The statement from Kris Harrison said he and his daughter had been watching a news item on gun crime when he told her he had a gun and asked her if she wanted to see it.


They went into the bedroom so he could show her a Glock 9mm semi-automatic handgun which he kept in the bedside cabinet.

… He said: "As I lifted the gun to show her I suddenly heard a loud bang. I did not understand what had happened. Lucy immediately fell."

Harrison said he could not recall whether his finger was on the trigger.

He acknowledged he had issues with alcohol in the past and said he "briefly lapsed" on the day of his daughter's death because he was emotional about her leaving….”

Good grief.

That is immeasurably sad.

I’d like to see a Dateline episode on this story.
 
“… The airport said in a statement that the restriction had been issued “on short notice” and that it was waiting for additional guidance from the F.A.A. In a notice, the F.A.A. said the federal government “may use deadly force” if an aircraft violating the airspace is determined to pose “an imminent security threat.”

A man who answered the phone Wednesday at the F.A.A.’s special operations support center said he did not know why all flights had been halted and did not expect any update for hours.

… Shortly before 3 a.m. at the airport in El Paso, yellow gates blocked the elevators and escalators, prohibiting anyone from riding up to the second level, which is where people walk through the Transportation Security Administration checkpoint lines to board flights.…”

FAA Halts All Flights at El Paso Airport for 10 Days: Live Updates

No flights are allowed to or from the airport until Feb. 20 under a flight restriction order that cited unspecified “special security reasons.”

Bizarre.

“special security reasons” sounds a lot like “special military operation” — may be coincidental of course but c’mon

I know this is Texas, but how do you not get an indictment?!!
 
I am guessing we are attacking Mexico (Cuba?) or we are going to see some mass ICE operation where they are just going to instantly deport people, ignoring the legal process.
