Officers with the Winter Springs Police Department responded to a 911 call on June 5, 2024, in which the caller said she had shot someone in the head. When officers arrived, 39-year-old Laurie Adams surrendered without resistance and officers found 51-year-old Adel Tawfeek on the back porch with a gunshot wound to the head. Adams told investigators she and Tawfeek got into a fight after he threatened the couple's child, who has autism. She said Tawfeek shoved her against a wall, then went to the back porch with a beer, after which she waited about 10 minutes, retrieved a firearm belonging to Tawfeek from inside the house, and shot him in the head. Officers also learned Adams had texted her mother days earlier asking that her mother "be responsible for her son if anything were to happen." #Florida #Bodycam #LawAndCrime STAY UP-TO-DATE WITH THE LAW&CRIME NETWORK: Watch Law&Crime Network on YouTubeTV: https://bit.ly/3td2e3y Where To Watch Law&Crime Network: https://bit.ly/3akxLK5 Sign Up For Law&Crime's Daily Newsletter: https://bit.ly/LawandCrimeNewsletter Read Fascinating Articles From Law&Crime Network: https://bit.ly/3td2Iqo Submit Tips to Law&Crime: [email protected] For Advertising Inquiries, Please Contact: [email protected] For Licensing Inquiries, Please Contact: [email protected] LAW&CRIME NETWORK SOCIAL MEDIA: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lawandcrime/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/LawCrimeNetwork Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lawandcrime Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/lawandcrimenetwork TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lawandcrime LAW&CRIME NETWORK PODCASTS: https://lawandcrime.com/podcasts/ SUBSCRIBE TO ALL OF LAW&CRIME NETWORK YOUTUBE CHANNELS: Main Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LawAndCrime/ BodyCam: https://www.youtube.com/@lawandcrimebodycam Trials: https://www.youtube.com/@lawandcrimetrials Investigates: https://www.youtube.com/@LawAndCrimeInvestigates Scandal: https://www.youtube.com/@scandalousnews

He was sitting on the balcony when she shot him. So this wasn’t self defense at all!! She said she took 15mins to calm down after the argument. That would make this premeditated I believe.
