ORANGE, Connecticut
A 47-year-old Orange man is behind bars after he was arrested in connection with a shooting on June 3.
The police department announced Friday they arrested Christopher Barretta Sr., a week after they responded to a report of multiple gunshots fired from a vehicle toward a residence on Old Tavern Road.
Police said the incident happened on June 3 around 11:30 p.m. The investigation showed that an occupied house and multiple vehicles in the driveway were struck with bullets. While all residents were home, police said no injuries were reported.
Upon further investigation, police said evidence revealed that the suspect vehicle from which the shots were fired was a 2004 Hummer H2 registered to Barretta, 47, of Alling Farm Road in Orange.
In a small Connecticut town in 1981, a brutal killing brought about one of the most unprecedented criminal defense strategies to emerge in U.S. history. In Fairfield County, a young attorney representing an accused teenager told Connecticut's Superior Court that his client should not be held culpable for stabbing his landlord to death because the killing was a result of demonic possession.
The case of Arne Cheyenne Johnson, charged for the killing of Alan Bono, brought national media attention in what quickly became known as “The Devil Made Me Do It” murder trial.
