A PAXTON man who shot a stranger over a drug debt owed to his sister's boyfriend has been jailed for a maximum of eight years, a judge lamenting his "inexplicable" decision to pull the trigger and painting a "bleak" picture of his future.
He had no connection to the victim and the debt he was helping recoup was only $1900, but on Australia Day last year Darcy Morgan armed himself with a loaded rifle and went to a remote property on the mid-north coast to back up his sister's partner, Mathew Llewellyn, and confront the victim.
