An Oklahoma man who was doing target practice in his backyard on Christmas is believed to have shot and killed an elderly woman a few blocks from his home, authorities said.

Cody Wayne Adams, 33, has been charged with first-degree manslaughter in connection with the deadly shooting, court filings show.

The victim was on a covered front porch with family members at a residence in Comanche when she was shot Thursday afternoon, according to the probable cause affidavit. She was holding a baby in her left arm while seated on a love seat when she was struck in her right upper arm, according to the affidavit. The bullet then entered her chest cavity, it said.

    I feel like you’re thinking I’m defending these cunts when I’m not.

    I’m saying the entire system has been subverted. It doesn’t work the way as intended because there are no consequences for breaking or ignoring laws/the system.

      Oh have some faith son, once they’ve starved enough people they will become accountable to the angry mob. Sad thing to have to see, but a tale as old as time. Sic semper tyrannis.
