he sheriff's office said Herbert then spent the follow day cleaning the home, and on Monday went out to run errands before telling the couple's daughter about the fatal shooting.

She made a big mistake cleaning the home.

I understand that for a person suffering a traumatic event doing normal things makes them feel more normal.

But a prosecutor reviewing the case is likely to see this as tampering with the crime scene and disturbing evidence. Most likely he will present it to a jury as altering evidence to support the self-defense plea.

Yes, cleaning. And also the fact she left the scene and did not report immediately. And then did not report for 2-3 days.

These do not look good.
