Mum sues city after she's arrested for 'ordering' son to shoot man seen punching her

A woman and her teenage son no longer face murder charges after she was accused of ordering him to shoot a man dead at a hot dog stand.

Prosecutors have dropped murder charges against Carlishia Hood and her 14-year-old son after the teen allegedly shot 32-year-old Jeremy Brown dead. The decision was made after video evidence emerged showing the man punching the woman before her son shot him.
