On a fateful morning in March, Dr. Harry D. Kelly, a respected physician from Council Bluffs, Iowa, pulled the trigger on a gun that would change his life forever. The victim was Edmund Sterzing, a man whose life was cut short by Kelly’s bullet. In a shocking turn of events, the jury has delivered a verdict of manslaughter, but lawyers for the defense claim it’s a miscarriage of justice. They argue that a man who’s declared insane can’t be held accountable for his actions.
