In 2023, California judge Jeffrey Ferguson was arrested for allegedly murdering his wife, Sheryl, during a domestic dispute. Following escalating arguments at their home and a restaurant, Ferguson reportedly shot her with his firearm after an exchange where she challenged him to use a real gun. His immediate response post-shooting included notifying court staff via text that he had lost control and shot her. Video evidence presented during the trial showed Ferguson's admission of guilt and remorse, as well as his distress after the incident, highlighting the tragic circumstances surrounding the case.
I killed her. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, convict my ass. I did it.
I just lost it. I just shot my wife. I won't be in tomorrow. I will be in custody. I'm so sorry.
