Concerned Divorce Lawyer Follows Client, Witnesses Shooting Aftermath

A concerned divorce lawyer following her client home after a consultation watched in horror as the woman tumbled from the car, shot by her husband who was hiding in the back seat.

The client, Ashley Kendall, was reported in critical condition, the Oregonian reports.

Oregon lawyer Sharon Mitchell was so concerned about Kendall's safety that she walked her to her car and then followed as she drove home. The rear passenger and cargo windows of Kendall’s Jeep Wagoneer were tinted, and neither Kendall nor Mitchell was aware that Travis Kendall was in the back, according to Coos County District Attorney R. Paul Frasier.

Mitchell saw Ashley Kendall fall out of her car after she had been shot. Police believe she was trying to escape as her husband pulled the trigger. Mitchell tried to administer first aid as Kendall’s husband sped away, Frasier told the newspaper.

Travis Kendall killed himself after a high-speed police chase.
