HARTFORD — A three-judge panel is deciding whether Calwyn Fearon is guilty of murder in the 2009 shooting death of his girlfriend, Sharon Tyrell Barnaby.
Fearon told police after the shooting that Barnaby was a ghost — specifically, the head ghost — and that he had "had enough," police said. He admitted he shot her with a .25-caliber gun and left in her 2003 Jaguar, according to a police report.
Public Defender Bruce Lorenzen asked the three judges, Judge Thomas O'Keefe Jr., John Mulcahy Jr. and John Carbonneau, to find Fearon innocent by reason of mental disease.
