1Opinion of the CourtMenchine, J.
Cheryl Marie Adams was observed by a passing motorist on Route 40 “walking down on the side of the road with blood all over the side of her face, actually all over her face.” Police were called and she was taken to the Washington County Hospital. She had sustained two gunshot wounds of the head. The wounds produced blindness of the right eye. The position of the bullets within the skull was such as to inhibit their removal. A jury in the Circuit Court for Washington County, convicted John Thomas Crawford of assault with intent to murder her. He was sentenced to imprisonment for thirty years.
