Charged with Involuntary Manslaughter

A woman accused of shooting and killing her husband earlier this year in St. Joseph is due in court next week.

An arraignment was set Friday morning for Angela Mason.  As we previously reported, the 47-year-old was charged earlier this week in Buchanan County with a class-C felony of involuntary manslaughter in connection with the death of 50-year-old Jeffery Mason.

According to court documents, on March 3  at their home on Ohio Street, Angela said she and Jeffery were arguing and during the argument the weapon discharged. A bullet hit Jeffery in the middle of his chest; he was pronounced dead by EMS responders a short time later.

Angela is due in court Tuesday for an arraignment. She’s currently out on $25,000 bail.
