“This was a coldblooded, calculated attempted murder,” Assistant District Attorney Blair Alford said during closing arguments. “If it was not for the victim’s quick thinking to wrestle the gun away from her, he would be dead.”

Alford and Assistant District Attorney Angad S. Ghai also presented evidence that Currie might have been planning to kill at least one other lawyer. Two hours before showing up at Couture’s office, Page said, Currie was spotted parked in the woods outside the office of another attorney who had represented her for part of a 30-year legal dispute with the homeowners association in her Mandeville neighborhood.

An employee at the building where that law firm was located asked Currie to move her car to a visitors' parking space, but she refused, Page said. She angrily gripped her steering wheel when she was told the attorney she wanted to see was not there and that police would be called, the employee said. The worker noticed that she was wearing blue latex gloves.

Cant imagine she procured a good attorney given her circumstances
Currie's first trial in April 2018 ended in a mistrial. Judge Peter Garcia said that Couture had made statements during that trial that were intended to prejudice the jury against Currie.

Public Defender James Carrington sought the mistrial after Couture mentioned negative incidents involving Currie and other people during Carrington's cross-examination of him. Garcia said the statements were not responsive to what the defense counsel had asked.

Couture responded to what the judge described as a yes-or-no question by saying others had called him after news stories about her planned attack on him, including another lawyer who told him Currie was the reason he started carrying a gun. He also pointed to Currie when he was asked to introduce himself, saying she had tried to kill him, which Garcia said was intended to plant prejudice in the minds of jurors.

Garcia said he couldn't "un-ring that bell" and granted the motion for a mistrial.

He got her off the first time but they still nailed her ass in the end.

Sentence was too damn high when no bullets were fired & she's a female . Y'all know emotions run wild sometimes with females

Okay. From a prison reform perspective I am with you on the sentencing.

It said the other lawyer she was stalking had helped her in a suit against the homeowners association so she was probably unpopular across town.
