A 75-year-old South Carolina woman allegedly didn’t let her oxygen tank slow her down when she pumped bullets into her husband’s legs during a heated argument at their home.
Josephine Scott of Timmonsville faces attempted murder charges after deputies say she shot her husband in both legs on June 27.
Florence County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to the couple’s home on Walker Swinton Road after reports of gunfire. Investigators allege Scott intentionally fired the shots following a domestic dispute. Her husband was rushed to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and is expected to recover.
The most striking detail? Scott’s mugshot.
In the photo released by authorities, the gray-haired grandmother appears frail as she poses in an orange jail jumpsuit, a clear nasal cannula delivering oxygen is visibly hooked to her nose. The image has been circulating widely in viral alerts and news clips, highlighting the jarring contrast between her apparent vulnerability and the serious allegations against her.
Scott was booked into the Florence County Detention Center on Sunday. During her first court appearance the following day, a judge set her bond at $55,000, $50,000 for the attempted murder charge and $5,000 for possession of a weapon while committing a crime.
She posted the full amount and was released on Monday.
Scott is scheduled to return to court on October 6.
Authorities have not released the husband’s name or disclosed what sparked the argument that allegedly turned violent. No further details about the shooting have been made public.
The case has quickly gained attention online, with many pointing to the mugshot as one of the more memorable in recent crime news.
