Darlene Mason
A Somerset woman accused of trying to kill her husband was arraigned in Pulaski District Court on Monday.
Darlene Mason, 39, pleaded not guilty to Attempted Murder (Domestic Violence) before District Judge Katie Slone, who scheduled her preliminary hearing for January 6.
According to Mason's arrest citation, the Pulaski County Sheriff's Office responded to a domestic shooting report at a residence on Woodland Trail around 1:50 a.m. the morning of December 22. At the scene, Mason advised deputies that she and her husband had been arguing when she threw a Christmas decoration at him. He then threw it back, Mason was reported to have said, hitting her in the leg before leaving the residence. Mason denied shooting her husband and told deputies "there were no weapons in the house," though she would later show them where her husband's handgun was located.
