Overview of the Case Against Briley Shayne Turner

Briley Shayne Turner, a 25-year-old woman from Bloomington, Indiana, has been charged with murder following the death of 36-year-old Michael Ray Hodge. The case stems from an incident that occurred on August 18, where Hodge was attacked in Turner’s apartment. Initially arrested and charged with attempted murder, the charges were upgraded to murder after Hodge succumbed to his injuries on September 11.

Details of the Incident

On August 18, police responded to a report of an assault at Turner’s residence. Upon arrival, they found Hodge severely injured. He reported that he and Turner were preparing to take a shower when she struck him with a baseball bat. Following this initial attack, Turner allegedly began stabbing him multiple times with a knife. The nature of Hodge’s injuries was severe; he sustained numerous stab wounds and blunt force trauma, which ultimately led to his death due to complications arising from these injuries.

Medical Findings and Autopsy Results

An autopsy conducted after Hodge’s death revealed that he died as a result of “complications of multiple sharp force and blunt force traumatic injuries.” The coroner ruled the death a homicide. Specific injuries included lacerations to various parts of his body such as the abdomen, neck, chest, and face, along with a broken arm.

Turner’s Defense Claims

After her arrest, Turner claimed that she acted in self-defense during the altercation. She stated that Hodge had attempted to make her swallow something against her will prior to the attack. However, evidence collected at the scene contradicted her account; police found her on a couch wearing clothes stained with Hodge’s blood and no visible injuries on herself.

Legal Proceedings

Following Hodge’s death, the Monroe County prosecutor’s office amended Turner’s charges from attempted murder to murder. She is currently being held without bond in Monroe County Jail while facing additional charges for aggravated battery and attempted murder.

Conclusion

The case against Briley Shayne Turner highlights serious issues surrounding domestic violence and self-defense claims in legal contexts. As proceedings continue, further details will likely emerge regarding both the circumstances leading up to the attack and the legal arguments presented by both sides.
