Bartley suggested that murder was not the appropriate charge because the shooting came at a time of “extreme emotional disturbance” for his client.

The extreme emotional disturbance is because he was accused of not properly training and supervising his deputy… who raped a woman in the judge’s office.

While you’d think an adult (the deputy) would know that they shouldn’t rape someone, the sheriff is the one who deputized him, and is responsible for giving him power in the community.

But then your loved one (mom, dad, sister,child) dies.
