Texas man using sleepwalking defense for wife’s murder

A Texas man says he cannot be held responsible for shooting his wife because he was sleepwalking. 

That is the defense 67-year-old Raymond Lazarine used at the Houston murder trial of his wife, Deborah. 

Prosecutors say Lazarine called his son to come home saying he had a strange dream, and that is when he discovered his mother’s body riddled with six gunshot wounds. 

Lazarine’s defense attorney says he suffered from a sleepwalking condition so he did not voluntary shoot his wife. 

If convicted of murder, he could face life in prison.
