this twenty first day of November four person Jerem Heather Smith,
Darryl's daughter, Lyric Walker, recounted that her father called her
shortly after five am, admitting he had made a grave
mistake and urging her to come to their house. Upon arrival,
Lyric and her brother, Darryl Junior, found the front door locked.

(01:51):
their mother lying on the bathroom floor covered in blood.

When questioned by the police, Daryl did not respond, but

can't go to jail, before fleeing the scene. Court documents
reveal that Darrel was arrested and subsequently charged with murder

(02:13):
and possession of a weapon. Levine told police the shooting
was an accident, saying he got into an argument with
his wife after she found out he had contracted an
STD from another woman. His daughter, Lyric, told police he
had purchased the gun a few months earlier. More crime
and justice news after this and now to Alabama. A

(02:39):
poignant day unfolded in the Madison County courtroom as a
murder suspect faced a bond hearing. Shakira Hampton, accused of
fatally shooting Michael Darden during a domestic altercation, was granted
a twenty thousand dollars bond, with both the accused and
the victim's family present to witness the proceedings. Hampton was
released on bond Thursday afternoon after being charged with Darden's death,

(03:03):
which occurred during a confrontation on Saturday. New information was
unveiled during the Anaia's Law bond hearing regarding the events
that transpired between the former partners. A Huntsville police investigator
recounted that Darden was at a church parking lot with
a friend with Hampton arrived and an argument started. The
friend reported witnessing Hampton brandishing a firearm before hearing two

(03:26):
gunshots ring out. Darden was quickly transported to a hospital,
but died due to his injuries shortly after. Prosecutor Emily
Carroll expressed concerns about Hampton's potential danger to the community, saying,
this is not a case of self defense or a
crime of passion. This is full blown murder. It appears
to be the culmination of an ongoing issue which raises

(03:49):
alarms about the behavior of this woman. I question what
safeguards exist against her doing this again. On the other hand,
Hampton's attorneys argued that she poses no threat and emphasize
that she has no previous record of violence. Carol added
that the Darden family is grappling with profound grief over

(04:09):
this bond decision. The family's heartbroking. They have lost a
beloved son, a brother, a nephew, someone who was cherished
by the community. No one should have to pay with
their life for the end of a romantic relationship, regardless
of how it concluded. Now, the woman accused of murder
has walked away with just a twenty thousand dollars bond,
