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.

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. Not even once.
And risk breaking a branch? There’s a perfectly good gun right there!
- 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.
Texas Roid Rage and the idiots believe life is cheap and guns will solve all their problems.
So they’re doing honor killings now?
Y’all Qaeda and the most excellent Yee-hawd.
PSA: Avoid Texas, it’s never safe. It’s like Florida.
As a Liberal Texan, there are a lot of great, progressive places in Texas. Generalizing a whole fucking state is pretty shitty. You realize how many millions of people live here?
Yes, our governor sucks ass. The state is jerrymandered into Republican control. However, as someone who has travelled and lived in over two dozen states in the US, I can tell you I’ve seen some of the biggest Trumpers in rural “blue states” like California.
Don’t blanket assume everyone is a gun toting, Trump voting Republican just because a state OVERALL votes a certain way.
Objectively speaking, you have to admit that if you are from any other states and visit Texas you would more likely be harassed by law enforcement or be a target for being an outsider. Does that mean that the citizens are all a reflection of that? Not really, but it would be very hard to convince a tourist (international or otherwise) to visit a state that has a backwards viewpoint that bleeds into their justice system.
Case in point, this women gets smoked and no charges are being pressed.
Fuck this opinion. Every last member of my family is in Texas. From Austin to Ft. Worth. All the women are liberal and all the men are gun toting MAGAs. Maybe one brother is just a conspiracy-minded libertarian, but the rest are MAGAs. I still love them and visit them, but I don’t want them having any legal jurisdiction over me or my kids.
People can be great, towns and cities can be nice, but corruption from leadership can ruin it for everyone. True for a state, the same for a country.
It really depends on the part. Austin and San Antonio are very art-focused, moderate/liberal cities in some of the most beautiful areas of the country, but everywhere in America has rural populations of utterly deranged hog-people.
A place like Dallas you aren’t as likely to get shot, but you are more likely to face weird, old-money racism and discrimination.
The problem with texas is it has some of the most vast areas of rural population, as the entire state is just this flat sprawl of land with isolated communities full of poor drug addicts who just stare at the flatness of it all before going insane.
San Antonio is a shit-hole full of rich white people who fucking LOVE jebus
Edit: Oh and the “river” is a fucking concrete drainage ditch. Literally pathetic.
As someone who LIVES in San Antonio, bullshit. San Antonio is an awesome city.
It also houses one of the chapters for the Democratic Socialists of America and is exceptionally purple in political spectrum.
There’s also Houston, the largest city in the state. Houston is alright, mostly.
I know two very excellent people from Texas. They both had the sense to move abroad. I keep ripping on them because “You forgot about the Alamo, didn’t you?!”
The alamo was a US led insurrection in Mexican territory because the rich US landowners there wanted slavery to continue, and for manifest destiony (aka zionist-style land theft). Its yet another stain on US history that we could only hope would ever be forgotten.
Texas has a lot more guns than Florida, but yes both are awful
it’s a shame cause the food is sinfully out in the lone star state
Unless you’re one of the billionaires fleeing the billionaire tax in California, in which case yes go to Texas, it’s way safer then the crime ridden California cities. You don’t even need to bring your body guards.
In fact, just broadcast to the world where you’re going everyday. Walk amongst the citizenry, it’s safe!
/s I hope
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.
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.
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.
The article gets way worse, "Littler said on the morning of 10 January his partner had asked her father during the Trump row:
“How would you feel if I was the girl in that situation and I’d been sexually assaulted?”
Kris Harrison had replied that he had two other daughters who lived with him so it would not upset him that much. "
Holy fucking shit.
Trump supporters are not good people
goodrealI personally know at least 10 people that are this person. I’ve been threatened with violence for voicing my opposition to Trump. Supposed Christians threatening violence because I don’t like their pedophile conman. They’re a bunch of little bitches.
Revelation 13:16.
It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads
You’d think Christians would be more aware of walking around with a symbol on their forehead (maga hats), but amazingly it takes an athiest who actually knows the bible to point it out, and booooooooy do they fuckin hate hearing it.
Construction is infested with Trump supporters. They’re always entitled imbeciles but there’s a lot of them
This is how I know he murdered his own daughter.
I’ve been thinking about that for a few minutes now. Does it mean he considers them property which loose value by being raped?
That reply just doesn’t make sense to me.
I chose to be homeless at 19 because I was terrified my stepdad would find out I’d been raped and kill me for not being a virgin any more.
Yeah I was about to post the same shit. That is disgusting that is his fuckin daughter for fuck sake.
Texas should be nuked without question. That state is not worth saving after they said they wouldn’t indicate him.
Fuckin magats are willing to let their children get raped for the pedo god king trump.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.Nah he’s a magat POS. They fantasize about murdering libs and anyone else who disagrees with maga even slightly. He 100% shot her on purpose and then lied to make it sound like an accident. That’s how far gone these psychos are.
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
Yeah, there is perhaps no pistol more known for unequivocally not firing unless the trigger is fully pressed from the center. There are in fact three different independent safeties in a glock. Man murdered his daughter, I do not accept complete ignorance of firearm use as a defense for someone who owns a gun and chose to pull out a loaded weapon and point it at someone.
I don’t disagree, I just wanted to point out that “the gun just went off” is absolute bullshit with a Glock. The rest is just me being way too generous. Best case scenario (for him), because it was a Glock, he should have been charged with involuntary or negligent manslaughter. If they charge parents for leaving a gun unlocked which leads to a child’s death, then why the hell would they nit charge that piece of shit.
I read the rest of the article, I regret it. Earlier that day his daughter had asked him how he would feel if one of the women Trump sexually assaulted had been her and he responded he had two other daughters who lived with him so he wouldn’t be all that bothered. What a piece of shit. Oh also he’d relapsed and had a
bottlebox of wine. Checks out.
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…
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.
Yes. Yeah. Basically, yes.
Thank you. I was too lazy to add it myself.
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.
I have heard it said that the prosecution has enormous power over what grand juries get to hear, to such an extent that grand jury results are mostly just a way of formalizing what the prosecutor has already decided. If the state wants an indictment, the state pretty much always gets one.
Served on grand jury, can confirm. In general they will lay it out how they want. You clearly can get their bias in wanting to pursue and not pursue cases.
That and the general “hive mind” lead to very predictable outcomes, especially when you can get early dismissal once you’ve cleared your docket.
Texas is beyond fucked.
It’s a shame our registered Democrats don’t actually vote. We outnumber the Republicans by 1.5m.
It’s a shame our registered Democrats don’t actually vote.
A truly crazy thing to say, given the systematic voter disenfranchisement the state suffers from.
There was a seven hour long line to vote in one of Houston’s bluest districts. This story was further complicated, when the last person to vote in this line was targeted by the state’s AG for prosecution.
When Hervis Rogers went viral on social media for being the last person in line at Texas Southern University to cast a vote at 1 a.m. on Super Tuesday, he was applauded as a tenacious, civic-minded man who worked hard to exercise his right to vote.
Now, Rogers is being prosecuted by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s office for allegedly voting illegally while on parole.
The arrest came just one day before the Texas Legislature convened on Thursday to begin a special session, where a controversial voting bill is on the agenda. Republicans in favor of new voting restrictions point to cases like Rogers’ as proof of an insecure system. However, there was no evidence of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
Another notable case was a woman who cast a provisional ballot while out on parole. She was hit with a five-year prison sentence, which took years to overturn.
Democrats want people in Texas to vote? Maybe Biden’s DOJ should have decriminalized Voting While Black within the state, while he had that power.
Where did you get that number from? Texas doesn’t have party affiliation on voter registration. Affiliation is automatic when you vote in a primary and expires at the end of the calendar year, and I be surprised if we’ve ever had bigger turnout for the Democratic primaries during my voting-age life.
Thanks, that’s where I was assuming. Like I want to believe, given the population spread throughout the state it seems reasonable to think there should be more left-leaning voters. But take for example this blurb from that site:
Texas voters do not register by party. However, when those voters participate in a partisan primary, that ballot choice is recorded and reported on the state voter file. In the absence of stronger indications (e.g. partisan political contributions or identification due to the holding of partisan public office) the most recent even-year partisan primary ballot is used .
But the 2024 primary turnout were 1.8M Republican ballots and 831k Democratic ballots. And that’s actually up vs the 725k Democratic primary ballots in 2020 (vs ~1.9M Republic ballots that year)! So that doesn’t add up.
We do know that there are otherwise-Democratic voters who vote in the Republican primaries because the districts are gerrymandered such that the primary is basically the real election (looking at me here).
This information is supplemented through the use of modeling analytics. Likely race in major urban areas plays a major role in that modeling.
I wish they would give more info than this.
Yeah, I was hoping they’d go into more detail about how they got their numbers in the link at the top of the page, but no such luck.
The Repubs rejoice about that, as well as making it harder to vote.
Texas, the One Star State.
Shithole Texas lives up to its reputation. I’ll never step foot in that traitor state again.
Why I tell family in Texas. I’m not ever stepping foot in the state. Sorry.
