EDINBURGH, Ind. (Daily Journal) - A Shelby County man was sentenced to 45 years in prison after he said he shot his ex-girlfriend out of jealousy, 24-Hour News 8’s news partner, the Daily Journal, reports.
The fatal shooting happened in February in Edinburgh. Kaye Ellis, 46, was found shot to death in her home.
Joseph Simpson, 44, of Fairland , pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and a firearms charge. He told the court he shot Ellis in the neck after discovering she was seeing someone else.
The shooting happened after an argument in her home, Simpson said. Their relationship had ended months before.
