He got charged with "aggravated assault." Out on bail already.

In a release, Johnson said the original charges were placed based on the information available to them at the time. Jenny Gambrell's medical condition prevented her from talking to authorities until Tuesday. The investigators also talked further with family members and witnesses to learn more about what led to the shooting. Correction to the first quote: I said he was out on bond, but apparently he's still in jail. |

Shit, that's nothing. Here in Nashville 10-12 years ago a cop went postal in Edge-o-Lake neighborhood. Apparently he (married) became upset when his GF (not married but also a cop) dumped him & took up with yet another cop. Postal cop repeatedly shot his service weapon multiple times (air & ground, IIRC) & had an on-camera meltdown. Cops stood around with their hands in their GD pockets thru the entire episode & did NOTHING. Were this a civilian, we'd have been dropped with a .308 rd most ricky tick.

The list of rural (and now municipal) counties I want to move to is getting smaller every month. |

UPDATE
Looks like the media attention got to the PD and they are charging him with attempted murder. http://www.wbir.com/story/news/local/2015/03/25/former-officer-charged-with-wifes-attempted-murder/70441916/ Gambrell was initially charged with aggravated assault, but Distirct Attorney General Russell Johnson decided Wednesday to upgrade the charges after Jenny Gambrell was able to be interviewed by investigators.

Jenny Gambrell's medical condition prevented her from talking to authorities until Tuesday. The investigators also talked further with family members and witnesses to learn more about what led to the shooting. I bet he wishes he would've just killed now. Correction to the first quote: I said he was out on bond, but apparently he's still in jail. |

I was watching it on tv and I didn't know he was a LEO. Then when they let him grab another gun out of the car trunk I was like wtf is going on. Then when it was reported he was a police officer it all made sense. |

Yeah, I remember an interview later where the spokesman told the reporter something like, "we could tell that he wasn't trying to harm anybody, he was just very upset."
