“Obviously, it would benefit in the custody case, it would benefit in many ways if I’m perceived to be this wild cocaine addict party girl,” Hartin said.

She also disputed past media reports that have portrayed her as a drug-addicted party animal, connecting them to her ongoing custody battle with Andrew over their 5-year-old twins. “The truth of the matter is none of that. Not only is Jasmine Hartin, 32, accused of shooting to death a top-ranking police officer in Belize, but her sisters are also mired in their own troubles. I’ve heard that I lured him there and it was Andrew that shot him,” she said. “I’ve heard I’ve executed him, that it was an attempted rape and I was defending myself. In speaking with Morgan, Hartin also addressed the “many different stories” about the details of the incident that have proliferated in recent months. “My brother was shot behind the ear… execution style,” his sister Cherry told CBS News. He was a lot bigger than me, so I couldn’t hold him up.”Īfter his death, Jemmott’s family pushed for Hartin to be charged with murder. “Then I tried to wriggle out from under him.

I could see blood and feel blood,” she recalled. The socialite insisted that she had been attempting to take the weapon’s clip out when the gun accidentally went off. Hartin, 33, said that Jemmott, a friend with whom she had been socializing and drinking that night, had handed her his service pistol because he “thought that it was important for me to get my firearms license, because he thought I needed protection.” Jasmin Hartin, 32, is the wife of British.

So I’m not sure if it was a faulty weapon or not.” A wealthy socialite has been charged with manslaughter in connection with the shooting death of a police officer in the Caribbean country of Belize. “I was trying to get the clip out and it just went off-I don’t remember ever touching the trigger. “I don’t remember ever touching that trigger on the gun so I don’t know what happened, to be honest,” she told Morgan. She did not dispute having shot Jemmott but said the incident was nothing more than a “tragic accident.” Excerpts from Hartin’s latest interview, which was set to air Sunday night, were reported earlier Sunday by The Sun.
