A Pennsylvania woman accused of killing her husband allegedly shot him during an argument to "show him a lesson" about gun safety.
Dawn Marie Freeman, 44, was arrested over the weekend and charged with one count of criminal homicide in relation to the death of her husband, Bradley Freeman, 40, according to court records.
Her arrest came after troopers with the Pennsylvania State Police were asked by a local police department to assist in a death investigation at a home in Adams Township at approximately on October 4.
Officers responded to the residence at approximately 6:37 p.m. During the investigation, police determined that Dawn had gotten into a "verbal argument" with her husband that resulted in "the discharge of a firearm" and the death of Bradley.
Dawn discussed the argument with investigators. According to a probable cause affidavit, she told them that her husband had been routinely leaving his 9 mm handgun in unsecured locations where children could reach it for at least two years.
On Sunday, Dawn said she returned home to discover the gun lying on a coffee table in the living room and confronted Bradley about its dangerous location. She said he refused to move it somewhere safe.
