A British woman was shot dead by her father last year after the pair had argued about President Donald Trump earlier that day. Lucy Harrison, 23, was fatally shot on Jan. 10, 2025 while visiting her father, Kris Harrison, in suburban Dallas at his home in Prosper, Texas. Harrison moved to the U.S. when Lucy was a child.

Prosper police originally investigated her death as a possible case of manslaughter, but a criminal case in Texas was not brought after a grand jury in Collin County opted not to indict him. Her death is being investigated in Cheshire Coroner’s Court in England.

    On the morning of the shooting, Littler said Lucy had asked her father, “How would you feel if I was the girl in that situation and I’d been sexually assaulted?” while they were discussing Trump. Kris responded that he had two other daughters living in their home, so it would not upset him very much.

    JFC This guy sounds like a real piece of work. The prosecutor apparently bought in to his story that he “invited her” to the bedroom to see his gun and it went off accidentally. Even though she hated the fact that he owns a firearm and they were about to leave for the airport.
