On May 30, 2018, twenty-seven-year-old Joshua Roy Tucker shot and killed his fifty-nine-year-old father Gordon Ernest Tucker. But, when he brutally murdered the father he was close to, he thought . . .
In the weeks leading up to the killing, Joshua shot holes in the ceiling of his home, believing people who were out to get him were living there. He cut holes in the walls and ceiling looking for surveillance bugs. His mother, Kim Ternier, to convince Joshua no one was in the attic, called the police to investigate and put his mind at ease. It didn’t. When Joshua gave his mom an electrical piece saying he thought it was a bug, she proved to him it wasn’t by taking it to an electrician. She even ordered a device that could detect surveillance bugs. She made arrangements to install motion detectors and a security system to ease Joshua’s fears and paranoia. They were scheduled to be installed the day of Gordon’s death.

the death pent. they need to stay the execution and let the supreme court hear the argument out. shepherd: brine? this is a classic case of shoot the messenger. the legal system worked. he went to trial. he had three forensic psychiatrists testify he doesn t meet the criteria for being mentally retarded. now at the last second, these experts come back and say gee whiz, now we made a mistake. that would compromise the entire integrity of our judicial system. the problem you have here is it s a bad standard that the state of georgia has requiring beyond a reasonable doubt. shepherd: that s the truth. that s the strictest standard in the united states. that said, it is the standard, but brian that s exactly right. shepherd: brian? yes. shepherd: iq of 70. equals mentally disabled. but that s not the issue. it s does the law in georgia right now conflict with the u.s.
