Woman Gets Life for Murder Witnessed by Parrot
Associated Press, August 29, 2017
WHITE CLOUD, Mich. – A Michigan woman has been sentenced to life in prison for the shooting death of her husband in a crime apparently witnessed by the man’s pet parrot. Forty-nine-year-old Glenna Duram of Sand Lake learned her sentence Monday after a jury found her guilty of first-degree murder and a felony firearm charge last month. Forty-six-year-old Martin Duram was shot five times in May 2015. Glenna Duram suffered a head wound in what prosecutors said was a suicide attempt, but survived.
Martin Duram’s ex-wife, Christina Keller, said that after the slaying, “Bud,” the pet parrot, repeated “Don’t fucking shoot” in Martin Duram’s voice. Keller took ownership of the bird after Duram’s death.
Glenna Duram’s attorney plans to appeal.
