A 38-year-old woman has been cleared of deliberate homicide and had her case dismissed.
MTN News spoke with Rachel Bellesen’s defense attorney about what this means for Bellesen, and those supporting her.
Sanders County prosecutors charged Bellesen with deliberate homicide after she shot and killed her ex-husband last October.
She was arrested in Hot Springs after calling the police to tell them what happened.
She told officers her former husband tried to rape her that afternoon while they were meeting to discuss their son. |

Can she still own and carry a gun?
That's THE most important question.
We've been arguing for time immemorial to arm battered women; it's a no-brainer.
She should never have been charged, we all know it, so the question remains.
CAN SHE STILL KEEP AND BEAR ARMS? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
