In April of last year, Jack Lang was having a bad day. His arthritis was acting up again, and his wife was calling him a "jerk off."
In fact, his better half, June, had been calling him a "jerk off" for weeks. She also called him a "baby" and teased him about not being able to do household chores anymore, allegedly, according to the guy who shot his wife.
Jack told her to pipe down and probably "stop yer hollering," but June kept going. One fateful night he walked up to June, who was legally blind, and held a .22 caliber revolver three inches from her face and pulled the trigger.
"She was nagging me," he gave as an alibi.

under the harsh tyranny of his pimp hand in 2013.
"Essentially, they were prisoners in their own building," the police chief said. Some seniors couldn't even venture into certain parts of the complex because "they were afraid."
Parham's bottom bitch, 66-year-old Cheryl Chaney, was also arrested. And yes, he'd use seniors within the housing complex for his prostitution ring.
