  • Tensions were high between the judge and Ashley Benefield's defense attorney during a pretrial hearing on Tuesday. While Benefield's defense argued a motion for clarification, the attorney stated that he believed the court was biased toward women. The defense said, “I know the court doesn’t appreciate this, but there is a bias against women.” The judge quickly fired back, saying, “Did you just say I didn’t appreciate it?” calling out the attorney and expressing disagreement with the statement. The trial is expected to begin on July 22 with jury selection.

    In September 2020, Ashley Benefield ran to a neighbor's house in Lakewood Ranch, Florida, and stated she had just shot her husband. Douglas Benefield had several gunshot wounds to his leg, arm, and chest area. Ashley Benefield claims she shot him in self-defense after months of alleged abuse. She was arrested and charged with second-degree murder. Ashley Benefield made bail and has been living with family and her daughter since the crime.
