Charles Maher, 66, of Badin, North Carolina, was shot and killed on June 8, 2017 after a heated altercation over a woman. The confrontation took place around 8:30 p.m.; Maher was found in a backyard with a gunshot wound to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Authorities arrested 60-year-old Randy Faggart; witnesses, including an off-duty Stanly County deputy, followed Faggart to his home on Cedar Street and he was taken into custody and held in the Stanly County Jail. Investigators said the men were involved in a physical fight that culminated in Maher being shot by Faggart.

Prosecutors charged Faggart with first-degree murder and the trial record states the defense argued self-defense while the prosecution presented evidence of the altercation and fatal shooting. Does anyone have information about the events that evening or knew Maher or others involved?
