Amber McFadden, 19, is charged with involuntary manslaughter in the death of Shane Brooks, 26, who was shot in the neck on the night of March 5 at a home in Virginia Beach. According to investigators, the two, described as lovers, engaged in foreplay that included firearms and knives, described as a dangerous version of 'Russian roulette'. McFadden pulled the trigger several times; initially clicks were heard, then the gun fired. Seven weapons were found in the room, including two revolvers on the bed. McFadden was arrested shortly after the incident. At a hearing over the weekend, the judge ruled there is enough evidence to move the charge forward before a grand jury. Her attorney, Artisha Gregg, said it was a tragic accident that was not intentional. Brooks' family emphasized that the two were not a couple and that they did not know McFadden. If convicted, she could face up to ten years in prison. The next hearing is set for October 21.
