Description

Defendant Jamie Avery was convicted of second-degree murder and armed criminal action under section 565.021 and section 571.015. The judge sentenced her to two consecutive terms of thirty years imprisonment. On appeal, Ms. Avery claims that the trial court erred in refusing to instruct the jury on self-defense, defense of premises, and voluntary manslaughter. This Court agrees. Although Ms. Avery testified at trial that the shooting was an accident, the State introduced evidence of prior statements by her to the police and to her boyfriend that supported submission of the theories that the shooting was intentional but done in self-defense or defense of premises or that it arose out of sudden passion based on adequate cause. Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is reversed, and the cause is remanded for a new trial.
