Kevin Nix, one of Kenneth Nix’s sons, said the jury delivered justice to his family, and he called it a relief that Judith Nix should be held accountable, after verdict was study. They said ’69yearold’ Kenneth Nix’s degenerating natural health made him angrier and more prone to lash out at her and that he died after he initiated a confrontation that led to a struggle over control of his gun. On p of this, whenever following years of escalating abuse that isolated her from her children and damaged her ‘selfesteem’, defense attorneys and witnesses had asserted in the course of the trial this week thatJudith Nix killed her ex husband in ‘selfdefense’ on March 21.

Prosecutors have alleged that Judith Nix staged the scene to look like a suicide when she put gun near Kenneth Nix’s left hand, left his home to purchase fried chicken and sent him a text message after his death indicating that she should get him food. Pearson was arrested on an accessory complaint past year but was under no circumstances criminally charged, nor was Angela Moore another of Judith Nix’s daughters. One way or another, one and the other testified this week about discussing with their mother what to do and say in the hours after Kenneth Nix died. Notice that every as well expressed her belief that Judith Nix was defending herself when she shot her ex husband. Yes, that’s right!

Grohmann responded that the syndrome is a subset of posttraumatic stress disorder, a diagnosis that has been included in the manual, and stressed that nothing prosecutors have ld him about Judith Nix replace his conclusions.
