kelley had been out drinking with friends and returned home around 2:00 a.m. >> cristy said i was too drunk that to get away from her. you know, she don't like me when i'm drunk. and i just turned around and shot in the air. being stupid to me. not knowing that the bullet was going to ricochet and hit my daughter through a open window. prosecutors say she was in an upstairs bedroom where she had gone to get away from her parent's argument when a bullet struck her in the chest. kelley says he left the scene unaware that his daughter had been hit. she was later pronounced dead at the hospital. >> i didn't know know nothing until they told me what happened the next day. when it registered, i was thinking, seriously? take the gun and do it yourself. i'll go crazy, for real. crying.
