Family Speaks Out After Man Gets 10 Years for Shooting Wife

Chilling video shows a Texas man fatally shooting his wife in the face. Carey Birmingham says he was in a state of rage because he learned his wife was allegedly having an affair, a claim her family denies. The evidence was presented to the 12-member jury, which consisted entirely of women. They allegedly sympathized with the wife killer and sentenced him to 10 years instead of the 20 years prosecutors wanted. The slain woman’s sister says the family was shocked at the jury's decision.

The jurors felt sympathy for him because she stole $120, 000 from his lifesaving and gave it to the man she was cheating with.

Love how they purposely left out the detail of his wife stealing 120k$ not saying she deserved death but it’s a relevant detail.

[purpleblue]

She was shamelessly filming the encounter to use in divorce court for even more of his money, assets, child support, etc. She didn't think he would actually pull the trigger. That's why she kept taunting and filming him. She assumed he would he would drop the gun and then the courts will award her everything.

Little did she know just how dangerous a man with nothing to lose is.

Inside Edition: “We do not misinform!”
Also Inside Edition: Left out the part where the wife did stole a huge amount of money and give it to her lover.

She stole 120k from him and gave it to the guy that she cheated with. And the proof was on video, she said “don’t be mad at him” the husband told her to get out but she stayed and taunted him.

Wonder why inside edition excluded her in the 20 minute video admitting to the affair. Not that it justifies murder but she did admit it.

[ThPhnx]

Since when is it acceptable for someone to outright MURDER someone and get less that 20????

[Jamesbooth]

She stole $120K from him and gave it to the man she was having an affair with, I would've done the samething.

[ClassicCap]

I feel bad for the kid though. Basically losing two parents in 1 day out of nowhere.
(Also please don't argue in the reply section because this video was already heat breaking enough.)

If a man holding a gun at me, i done have no time recording it. I am out of there. I am not no superwoman.

[JordanRohde-xgoy]

She really sounds like she's antagonizing him . Cheater playing victim actually became a victim .

[ENZOxDV]

She stole $120, 000 of his money and gave to the guy she admitted to having an affair with. She then proceeds to taunt and humiliate him on video and pretend like she did nothing wrong. This mans world fell apart and acted in blind rage, not a justification but understandable. Jury understood this and gave the correct sentence.

This lady stole 120k of this guy's life savings and gave it to the man she was cheating on him with. That's why he only got 10 years. There's alot more to this story than what is being reported here.

[mamabear]

She did not beg for her life because she really thought he would not do it omg this is disgusting and despicable

[dillon]

They left out the part where she stole 120, 000$, cheated on him, and gave the 120k to the man she was cheating with. And the part where she admitted to the affair...The husband told her multiple times to leave his house, and she didn't leave and just kept taunting him, she was gloating.

No saying she deserved death, but she wasn't no innocent sweetheart.

[ShihazGaming]

Family member will always deny their family member having affair...

[vickiekasafirek]

Im ashamed of this whole jury. I don't know how they can sleep at night.

My uncle got 20 years in Texas for a non-violent crime. This is America

[stanford-nfjk]

At first I wondered, “Why didn’t she just leave right then and there?” Then I thought some more and figured that she wanted to get him on video making these threats to have as evidence.
