A British woman who was shot dead by her father while visiting his home in Texas had argued with him about US President Donald Trump earlier that day, an inquest has heard.
Lucy Harrison, from Warrington in Cheshire, was shot in the chest on 10 January 2025 in Prosper, near Dallas.
Police in the town investigated the 23-year-old’s death as possible manslaughter but no criminal case was brought against Kris Harrison after a grand jury in Collin County declined to indict him.
An inquest into Lucy Harrison’s death opened earlier at Cheshire Coroner’s Court, where her boyfriend Sam Littler described the “big argument” about Trump, who was preparing to be inaugurated for his second term of office.
possible manslaughter
beyond doomed country
Couldn’t even get a grand jury indictment. No doubt the local yokels closed ranks. Made up some nonsense about it being an accident.
morbidly curious about whether the piece of shit feels any guilt at all about killing his daughter over a conman… what the fuck am i saying of course he doesn’t he probably posted about it on facebook and the 50 different bots with a bald men with sunglasses pfp all 😂😂😂 reacted and he felt like he saved his country or whatever
edit: I read the article this was blatantly a murder by an alcoholic magat what the FUCK. like who is actually buying this?? he had a big argument with his daughter and then just “wanted to show her his new handgun”??? death to amerikkka
Reminder that the people who lynched Ahmaud Arbery almost got away with it until they were stupid enough to release the footage of the murder, thinking it would exonerate them and people would call them heroes. Over two months with no arrests.
You’re right why am I even acting surprised. neonazi country
Well to be fair after WW2 we executed all the rank and file Nazis but most of the leadership we brought over here to help us organize our society I’m pretty sure.
Did you miss the part of the article with his answer to “what if I was one of the women trump raped”?
No I was trying to cool off and not fedpost this is genuinely beyond words
I did, it’s paywalled.
More likely the prosecutor just didn’t show any evidence. The prosecutor has so much influence over whether there is or isn’t an indictment.
It’s perfectly on brand for the USA, really. This uppity woman didn’t listen to the man of the house, so he had to wave his gun around to remind her of her place. He was so distraught at his authority being questioned that his gun accidentally went off while it was pointed at his daughter. The guy feels bad, so it’s OK. Plus, as he said himself,
Kris Harrison had replied that he had two other daughters who lived with him so it [his daughter being sexually assaulted] would not upset him that much.
killing your family and dying alone to own the libs
His true family was the magats he found along the way. How heart-warming.
In order for it to be manslaughter you’d have to consider the victim a person.
Harrison said he could not recall whether his finger was on the trigger.
I do not like Glocks. Quite simply, I prefer pistols with a manual safety which Glocks do not have. That said, a Glock WILL NOT FIRE unless your finger is on the trigger. A Glock’s safety mechanism is on the trigger itself.
If you are going to own a firearm, GO TO TRAINING. Trigger discipline should be muscle memory so that even piss drunk you keep your finger off the goddamn trigger until youbare ready to pull. If the guy was trained in firearm use, then he 100% murdered his daughter on purpose.
MAGA is a cult and its members are mentally ill.
“Don’t aim a gun at anything you don’t want to destroy”
“Keep your booger hook off the bang lever”
Yeah, if you are going to checks notes point your gun at your daughter, at least have some goddamn checks notes trigger discipline!
I"m giving that piece of shit A LOT of leeway by assuming he wasn’t purposefully pointing the gun at her and rather just holding it to show. (That’s cutting about ten miles of slack.) If that’s what he was doing (doubtful) then he should not have had his finger on the trigger.
My gut tells me that his MAGA poisoned brain, having the impulse control impaired by alcohol, pointed the gun at her and his finger twitched, because deep down he wanted to “kill the b!t¢h” that dared insult his god emperor. The bang instantly sobered him up and broke his hateful trance. That’s when he started cryring for
mommyhis wife.I have had multiple daughters. Most have pissed me off beyond belief. I’ve went out shooting with them as well. No way in hell I’m pointing a gun at anyone unless I plan to shoot that person. That’s basic gun knowledge and safety.
You also don’t have a MAGA rotted hatebrain. These guys (MAGA zealots) are mentally ill.
absolute fucking lunacy
Thank you. I was too lazy to add it myself.
Am I understanding this correctly, that the Glock safety is on the trigger itself? That seems really fucked up. Other than meeting a technicality, it useless, no?
It means the only way for it to fire is to fully pull the trigger it can’t “go off for no reason”
The gun also had to be loaded and cocked…
Unless it’s whatever Sig was that had a recall. And the firing mechanism could still slip from certain impacts. But those don’t have anything to do with the safety; an additional safety isn’t going to fix those.
If a person is trained to use a firearm then both styles are effective, but yes a glock is more dangerous around idiots because they think it won’t fire and they have no trigger discipline.
Can anybody buy a gun like this? I appreciate laws will vary between states. If so shouldn’t there be safety measure to idiot proof killing devices?
In america yes. Its not legal to conceal and carry without a permit but buying one isn’t much trouble. We have decided guns are on the honor system.
Some states, such as mine, have done away with concealed carry permits even. I believe they call it “constitutional carry”.
Damn, thats patriotic.
I did last week, and walked out with it that day. I had 6 hours of instruction very focused on safety and discipline. Most I tried had safeties like this, not at all just glocks.
And I’ve seen multiple threads online insisting people should keep their gun loaded and chambered at home, even though they’ll likely never need it for defense, and it takes under 2 seconds to slap in a mag and cock it. And if the gun were pre-cocked, it would just chamber automatically anyway.
Yes. Yeah. Basically, yes.
I practice trigger discipline with fucking nerf blasters
I practice trigger discipline with my power tools
If I so much as want to change the bit on my drill I switch it off and disconnect the power source before getting my fingers anywhere near the service end of it. Is that excessive? Probably but I certainly think the time expense is worth taking extra steps to avoid an ER visit
So, I just bought a handgun, after 6 hours of range instruction time, and we tried a bunch of makes. Only one of them had a regular non-trigger safety.
WHAT THE FUCK! THE GRANDJURY REFUSE TO INDICT? This total bullshit hang that motherfucking dad from a fucking tree.
After they have witnesses of him telling her he didn’t care if she got raped!
Texas, I swear to God. I am from there, all of my family is there. My daughters adore their cousins and beg to move there. Absolutely not.
My MAGA Dad raised his hand like he was going to hit me at Christmas during a political discussion. I was shocked. He is old and feeble, so I told him I would hit him back.
Texas is a shithole and they only people who don’t realize it have lived there their entire lives.
I have an acquaintance whose husband wants to move to Texas, and like not a major city in Texas. I have some serious side eye for the whole situation.
I’m on the fence on this one. How old are they?
On the visit home over Christmas, the idea crossed my mind of retiring there, and I got fairly homesick. I miss the arid, rugged climate. I hate the cold. Being close to family would be nice, and Texas could use more hard-headed, angry liberals. But it’s too dangerous until my uterus is old and broken down and while I’m responsible for other people with functional or soon-to-be-functional uterii. Texas also has water shortage on the near-term horizon from shitty resource management, so it’s best to wait and see where that goes.
But my point is, everyone wants to go home to die, right?
She had elementary school children (including a daughter).

Texas. Not even once.
WHAT THE FUCK! THE GRANDJURY REFUSE TO INDICT?
Grand jury: We protect one of our own.
It’s clear the DA has a motive to mislead them.
A jury of peers
A jury of many beers
This is next level disturbing.
This is Texas
And risk breaking a branch? There’s a perfectly good gun right there!
They were all cleaning their guns at the time.
Man shoots daughter dead and everyone’s just okay with it because she didn’t like Trump?! The fuck is going on down there? How have you existed as a country this long?!
Man shoots daughter dead and everyone’s just okay with it because she didn’t like Trump?!
It’s like South Asian “honor” murders where women are killed for even the most trivial matters.
Literally, these are honor killings. Full stop. Take a look at the gender makeup of these anti-ICE protests and then take a look at the ICE goons.
It’s patriarchy, and people fighting patriarchy. It’s always been about white guys feeling terrified of their power eroding, and since white patriarchy has no coherent acceptable response other than rage, their first resort is everyone else’s last resort.
Fascism is about man always sitting at the head of the table and wearing the pants.
That’s a good point. Pointless and senseless but makes sense to some in some convoluted way to justify it. Just sad that it is acceptable. And what honour they aim for over such a shitty example of humanity?!
This has been going on forever, all Trumpism did was give it a shape so that it could make the news.
It also goes on everywhere in the world, all the time.
Our species is not what you think it is, and I am sad for every thinking, feeling person who thinks they know how bad the situation is, but hasn’t yet had that moment where it all sinks.
Dude admitted he was an alcoholic who had already had a bottle of wine before the shooting, and they couldn’t get a manslaughter charge to at least go to trial? Being drunk and accidentally killing someone is manslaughter.
This country is so fucked up.
In religiously paternalistic Texas, killing one’s own children is a God-given biblical right.
Unless they’re unborn! There is nothing more sacred than an unborn baby. Born babies can get discarded, though.
She was slandering Dorito Jesus, if anything he’s a hero.
- Accidentally took the daughter in the downstairs bedroom.
- Accidentally produced a gun.
- Accidentally loaded it.
- Accidentally pointed it at the daughter.
Accidentally flicked the safety off.Apparently it was a Glock- Accidentally pulled the trigger.
…
Color me suspicious but even if all that was just a series of unlucky coincidences, that man should be kept away from all guns for the rest of his life. At the very minimum.
He told the court that later that day, about half an hour before they were due to leave to go to the airport, Lucy had been in the kitchen when her father took her by the hand and led her into his ground-floor bedroom. Littler said he heard a loud bang about 15 seconds later and then Kris Harrison screamed for his wife, Heather.
Jesus fucking Christ he fucking executed her
So they’re doing honor killings now?
Y’all Qaeda and the most excellent Yee-hawd.
What is going on earth? İs this real? Did he shoot his daughter because of Trump?
What the article says is they disagreed on guns and argued about Trump. They went into his room to look at his 9mm glock and according to him the gun went of and he didn’t realize his finger was on the trigger. He relapsed to alcohol and was drunk at the time.
He said: “As I lifted the gun to show her I suddenly heard a loud bang. I did not understand what had happened. Lucy immediately fell.”
Harrison said he could not recall whether his finger was on the trigger.
His finger was absolutely on the trigger, and he pulled it. Glocks don’t just go off. They’re pretty well engineered.
He was drunk and had a gun… How American.
On the trigger or not, that’s exactly why you never “show” someone a loaded gun. Unless we are at a range and we’ve already done all the safety training and I feel that you’ve got a grasp of it, I’m not keeping a loaded gun in my hands around anyone I don’t plan on shooting.
It was pure negligence. Plain and simple. And now his daughter is dead. Accident or not, he ignored the rules and someone died from that negligence.
I don’t think it was negligence, I think it was murder that he played off as negligence.
Yeah. A Taurus or a Sig, maybe. Not a Glock. There’s a reason they’re so popular. They reliably fire when the trigger is pulled and only when the trigger is pulled.
Even if it was a Sig, it was only older model P322s that had that problem. Pistols firing without pulling the trigger isn’t nearly as common as people (including, apparently, this jury) believe.
Also the P320 - which was adopted as the new standard-issue handgun for the US military.
The Air Force actually suspended their use for a few months last year after one went off uncommanded and killed an airman. They inspected them and found that over 2% were already in unsafe condition after being adopted just 5 years earlier.
And the civilan version is worse and in the middle of several lawsuits. And this is after they were recalled for not being drop-safe.
I did not understand what had happened.
Maybe he shouldn’t be allowed to own guns, just a thought.
If you accidentally killed somebody with a gun, you probably aren’t well regulated enough to be a militia.

Too soon man, too soon
We’ll never know the truth.
I shoot pretty often, and handguns are notoriously inaccurate. So I think he may very well have shot her in anger and fabricated this afterwards. Also it she was against guns, why would she follow someone, who is intoxicated, into another room, to look at one‽
This story is fishy as fuck.
IRL Sir Norman Fry testimony. Just not funny.
Sunk-cost fallacy.
Trumpers don’t want to admit to themselves or each other that they’ve been duped, so they just keep digging their hole deeper.
Trump supporter=Erdogan supporter i think.
Sort of like the “Russia Russia Russia” people …
Oh no, sorry, the Russian that lives inside my washing machine just showed me a gif, and now my eyes are like those cartoon spirals of hypnotized people!
Send help!!
He said it was an accident. I think a different article I read on this said he went back to treatment for alcoholism after this. This kinda suggests he was too drunk to remember. The other article noted the dad is not the one that called the ambulance which would more commonly be the case in an accidental shooting. But if he was drunk idk.
Have you ever noticed how the right always says the “left went too far” and somehow manages to push their argument by pointing to a single tweet or headline? Why doesnt that work against them too?
They don’t give a shit about words or truth, they just yell and invent when they don’t get their way until everyone does what they want because they are the smart ones who know better, which is why they need to kill everyone who doesn’t agree with them and say it’s because that’s what we want
Because they don’t care about evidence or facts unless it fits into their narrative.
You can point to posts advocating for violence or censorship coming from their ilk and they’ll just attribute it back to the other side because “we wouldn’t need to if they didn’t do it to us first.” It’s just the abuser justification, “look at what you made me do”.
Or they will just outright deny reality, dismissing opposing evidence as conspiracies, exaggerated, or misunderstood. Did Elon really do a Nazi salute? “No, no. He was just sending his heart out to Americans!”
And when there’s overwhelming evidence that they can’t do mental gymnastics around? They shut down the conversation. They stop talking about it. They ignore it. They bury it. Out of sight, out of mind.
When someone is indoctrinated into that way of thinking and makes their politics a part of their personality, you are not going to beat them at their own game. Their sense of identity is tied to their beliefs and their ego will not let them accept anything that goes against those beliefs. They need to be deprogrammed.
Texas is beyond fucked.
Texas, the One Star State.
and frozen from time to time. i assume they still have feral hog problems in the state.
“YOU DON’T TALK ABOUT MY FAVORITE PEDOPHILE LIKE THAT!!!”
