Atlanta, Georgie criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant charged with malice murder of his wife Tiffany Jackson-Pugh and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony.





The evidence presented at Pugh's trial showed the following. Around 6:00 a.m. on November 23, 2014, Tiffany was shot and killed while asleep in her bed at the Pughs' East Point residence. At 6:05 a.m., Pugh called his boss to report that someone had broken into his home. Pugh's boss drove to Pugh's home, and when he arrived, Pugh indicated that he had not been inside the residence but had noticed a suspected intrusion upon his return from overnight employment. At approximately 6:15 a.m., Pugh called 911 and informed the operator that he was at the residence, the garage door was open, and a downstairs window was broken. He told the operator that Tiffany had been murdered but again claimed that he had not been inside the home.
