A Florida man admitted he shot a man he found in an SUV with his wife but sought to convince jurors he did so in self-defense.
Gary Savage pulled up to his estranged wife’s cul-de-sac in suburban Maryland, fresh off a 900-mile drive from Florida and armed with a loaded pistol. Ahead of him, inside a parked SUV, she sat with another man. Moments later, the man was dead, his wife was calling 911 and Savage had stripped naked to wait for the police.“My clothes got real hot,” the 60-year-old told jurors inside a Montgomery County courtroom, “so I took off my clothes.
“He’d call from the road all the time and make me laugh, sometimes about different things he loved to eat,” his sister Eugenia Davis recalled in an interview. “I remember him saying, ‘I’m on my way to Mexico, and I’m about eat me some rattlesnake.’” “Did something happen to you when you were in Korea?” one of his attorneys, Isabelle Raquin, asked Savage.The 20-foot fall, he testified, injured his back and head and left him with post-traumatic stress disorder.
Savage testified that Shabazz told him, “I got something for you” as he opened up the rear of his SUV, reached inside and pulled out what Savage immediately knew was a gun — even if he couldn’t see it. He climbed down, removed the clip from his semiautomatic handgun, threw it and the gun onto the ground, and stripped naked. He also called his mother in North Carolina.
