In December of 2013, a shooting took place on the square in nearby Manchester, TN and after almost 4 years the trial of Brenda Kay Webb Bartee started May 30, 2017.

On Tuesday, June 6, 2017 a jury found Bartee guilty of attempted murder of Dr. Harry Bartee, using a weapon during the commission of a felony and not guilty of attempted murder of Tara Evans-Bartee. The woman shot her soon to be ex-husband four times, according to police.

Bartee, 51, has been held in the Coffee County Jail since the shooting. She was accused of shooting Dr. Bartee as he stood outside an attorney's office on the courthouse square in Manchester. Manchester Police allege that the couple had been in divorce mediation at an attorney's office prior to the shooting.

On Wednesday (Sept. 20, 2017) Bartee was sentenced to 25 years in prison by Judge Craig Johnson. An appeal is expected.
