Blood Knot: The Trial and Conviction of Bruce Curtis by David Hayes

Blood Knot by David Hayes ~ The Trial and Conviction of Bruce Curtis

"My stepfather was laying in bed. I saw his harm drop to the side of the bed. There was a .22 rifle by the side of the bed...He started arguing with me...and then he fired a shot in my direction. I freaked out and something fell on the mirror. He looked in that direction and as he looked I ran toward the door and fired. After I fired I went in the hallway and when I looked back I saw blood spattered on the wall.

"The next thing I heard was another shot. Then I heard my mother groaning or crying. I stayed upstairs for a couple of minutes and then I went downstairs and saw her lying between the dining room and the bar room in the doorway. Bruce was standing there screaming. "What are we going to do?" - Testimony of Scott Franz
