A man is aquitted in the death of a young man
A Wisconsin jury acquitted Daniel A. Kelly, 31, who was accused of killing an ex-Minnesota legislature's son. Kelly was charged with first-degree reckless homicide in the shooting death of Austin Bodahl, 23, and a recent resident of Madison, Wisconsin at the time of the shooting.
Apparently Kelly's attorney's argued that he shot in self defense, and that as a former soldier in Kosovo-had irrational fears about what would happen in a fight.
Bodahl was the son of former state rep. Larry Boddahl.
The Bodahl family was shocked as the statement was read. The Kelly family, unsurprisingly, looked jubilant at the decision.
