A Hamilton County grand jury indicted a Loveland man Thursday for murder, accusing him of shooting his live-in girlfriend to death June 18.
Howard Williford Jr., 53, was indicted for murder and felonious assault for the shooting death of Debra West, 49.
Williford also tried to commit suicide by shooting himself in the face.
He was unsuccessful and appeared in court - his face scarred and swollen from the suicide attempt - following his release from University Hospital.
The bullet remains lodged in his face.
A compilation of daily news articles from around the United States about deaths (including both people and animals) that appear to occur in the context of a past or present intimate relationship, focusing on 2009-present. (NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
