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? |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
