    A Texas father was sentenced this week to 10 years in prison for
    fatally shooting his wife in the head on camera after learning
    about her alleged affair.

    Carey Birmingham, 60, told his wife Patricia she was going to
    “meet Jesus” right before he shot her three times outside the
    Spring, Texas home in December 2021.

    The pair argued for roughly 30 minutes before he shot her after
    finding out she was allegedly having an affair, according to ABC
    13.

    “I hope it was worth it,” he said in the video, obtained by ABC
    13. “I’m done, I’m f–king done.”

    Birmingham’s lawyer, Anthony Osso, said his client pleaded
    guilty directly to a rare all-women jury. Osso was trying to
    convince the panel that the husband had shot his wife in the
    heat of the moment.

    “We never tried to justify the actions of our client, but the
    defense wasn’t about justification. It was about why he did what
    he did,” Osso told the local outlet.

    However, their daughter Olivia isn’t buying the defense and is
    skeptical that her father’s crime was a result of “sudden
    passion.”

    “You have to have something. You have to have made that decision
    within you for a while; I feel like to do something, to do that
    to someone you really love,” she told ABC 13.

    “No matter what was said in this trial, you know what type of
    woman she was, and you know what you did and how he took away my
    favorite person in this world.”

    Olivia, who was at school when her mother was shot, said she
    lost her dad the same day her mom died.

    “I lost both my parents that day. My dad died that day, too,
    because the person who did that to my mom and my father aren’t
    the same person,” she said.

    Olivia also accused her father of emotionally and financially
    abusing her and said she will never forgive him for what he did.

    Birmingham will be eligible for parole in five years.
