Quackenbush, who now lives in Texas, will serve her time in the Lone Star State. She will reportedly have to make virtual reports and authorities will keep an eye on her criminal record.
Melton had to have at least three surgeries because of the shooting. Officers have said that he was attempting to sleep on a sidewalk, but there were exhaust fumes and loud music coming out of Quackenbush’s SUV. He asked her to move. This sparked an argument. Melton returned to this spot, but Quackenbush stepped out of her SUV and shot him twice before she fled.
