GAINESVILLE, Mo. -- The Ozark County prosecuting attorney says the shooting death of a man from Dora was a case of justifiable homicide. He dropped murder charges against Floyd Russell, 24, who was charged with killing his uncle, Terry Russell, in October.
A coroner's jury found the death was the result of an ongoing family feud that turned violent with another relative.
