What’s old is news again
WLOSers led their Sunday night show at 6 with a story that happened last week – a woman shot has been charged with shooting and killing her husband at their Arden home.
It’s unclear what was new in Kassandra “Special K” Pride’s report, though she seemed to be telling the dead man’s side of the story. Initial reports seemed to suggest that Deborah Clark shot and killed her husband because she was in an abusive relationship. But on Sunday, Special K said the dead man’s family said he was a good family man who “wouldn’t lay a hand on his wife.” Special K seemed to skirt close to other dangerous territory about allegations from the dead man’s family. Guess we’ll have to see what comes out in court.
