Arrest
Victoria Vetri (legally Victoria Rathgeb) had been charged with attempted murder after she allegedly shot her husband from close range inside the Hollywood apartment that they share after an argument on Saturday, October 16, 2010. Vetri was arrested the same day by the Los Angeles Police Department’s Hollywood Division and has remained jailed since then on $1.53 million bail, which the judge refused to reduce. In Jan 2011 she was denied a reduction of the charge of attempted murder and was ordered to stand trial on this charge.
In September 2011, Vetri pled no contest to a reduced charge of attempted voluntary manslaughter and was sentenced to nine years in state prison.

Why plowing, building, ruling and the rest,

And blest Seth vexed us with Astronomie.”
