SELMER, Tenn. (AP) - Lawyers for a small-town minister's wife argued Thursday that police illegally searched her family's residence after her husband was found shot to death on a bedroom floor.
Mary Winkler, 32, is charged with first-degree murder, and defense lawyers don't want prosecutors to introduce evidence seized at the Church of Christ parsonage, including bank records.
Matthew Winkler had been pronounced dead by a physician and no one else was in danger when police searched the residence on March 22, defense lawyer Steve Farese argued.
