A woman has been found guilty of shooting her husband to death in a murder case witnessed by a parrot.
Glenna Duram, 49, shot her husband Martin five times in front of their pet in 2015, before failing in a suicide attempt.
The parrot, an African Grey named Bud, is alleged to have later repeated the words “Don’t shoot!” in the victim’s voice.
Duram, of Sand Lake, Michigan, was found guilty of first-degree murder by a jury. She will be sentenced next month.
The parrot was not involved in any court proceedings.

Good lord I hope there was evidence!! Talk about hearsay?
“The parrot was not involved in any court proceedings.”
But hey if it had been, that would be the best jury duty ever!
“...If only Hillary’s dogs could talk...”
Well stated! Yes, I have always stated that it would have been very revealing to have been the proverbial ‘fly on the wall’ with Slick and Hitlery...how many life sentences could they have racked up for the countless crimes against America and untold felonies ranging from the trail of bodies starting in Arkansas across the years to the treason of Chinagate to selling political access and uranium scams all for crooked money to be laundered in the Clinton Foundation.
And they still walk the streets as free people. Beyond mind boggling.
Truth is stranger than fiction, or just as.
A Perry Mason episode featured a woman whose husband was found shot dead. Their parrot kept repeating “Put down that gun Martha! Don’t shoot! Don’t shoot!”
She made that parrot disappear before the trial & substituted another.
Do parrots repeat something after hearing it once? They certainly don’t do impressions. He’s probably just pining for the fjords.
“If You’re A Parrot You Repeat Things, It’s What You Do...”
If you don't want them too repeat it, they will.
And African Grays tend to pick up things quickly.
So, that’s the reason for the old saying, “Shoot the bird.”
“The parrot was not involved in any court proceedings.”
African Grey parrot. It wasn’t allowed to testify because it kept saying “I was hatched in Hawaii.”
Squawk: “Polly wants ten grand.”
This incident and other movies can be obtained from the Tabasco Film Company, Havana, Cuba.
I saw what you did there (and so did the parrot)
I knew a Freeper would pick that up.
LOL
What about Yvonne, Renee and Loretta?
and what the parrot saw.
Hillary says her dog got loose and “ran out into traffic.” Unh hunh.

I never forgave Hillary for getting rid of Socks when she left the White House.
Socks was the only member of the Clinton family I had any respect for.
