Fox News
A Florida woman who has been accused of fatally shooting her terminally ill husband is seeking to be released from jail.The woman said she and her husband had a suicide pact.
Instead, Gilland engaged in a four-hour standoff with police officers. They eventually used a nonlethal explosive to distract her and take her into custody, Young said. She's been held at the Volusia County Jail since her arrest.
On Wednesday, Gilland was indicted on lesser charges of assisting self-murder/manslaughter and aggravated assault of a law enforcement officer. Now her lawyers are seeking a bond hearing.
"None of the charges against Ms. Gilland are capital offenses or offenses punishable by life imprisonment. Therefore, Ms. Gilland is entitled to pretrial release," attorney Matthew Ferry wrote in a motion filed late Wednesday.
