A 23 year-old British woman was shot dead by her own father after the two had a heated argument about then-President-elect Donald Trump, according to a new report.
The Daily Beast reported Tuesday that Lucy Harrison was fatally shot by her father, Kris, in early 2025 while she was visiting him at his home in Texas. According to the Beast, Kris Harrison moved to Prosper, Texas (a suburb of Dallas) when his daughter was a child. The argument reportedly took place on January 10, 2025, before Trump officially began his second term.
While Prosper police investigated Lucy Harrison's death as a manslaughter case, a grand jury in Collin County, Texas ultimately declined to indict Kris Harrison. Now, Lucy Harrison's death is being investigated by Cheshire Coroner's Court in her home country.
According to reports, Lucy Harrison's boyfriend, Sam Littler, recalled in a recent court hearing that his girlfriend had a "big argument" with her father in the aftermath of Trump's reelection. Lucy Harrison had brought up the multiple allegations of Trump assaulting women, and asked her father of Trump: "How would you feel if I was the girl in that situation and I’d been sexually assaulted?"
According to Littler, Kris Harrison responded that because he had two other daughters living in his home, he wouldn't be too distraught if Lucy Harrison was assaulted by Trump. The 23 year-old reportedly became "quite upset" and left the room. Later that day, Kris Harrison took Lucy Harrison by the hand and led her to his bedroom. Just seconds later, Littler said he heard a loud "bang" and then heard Kris Harrison call for his wife.
"I remember running into the room and Lucy was lying on the floor near the entrance to the bathroom and Kris was just screaming, just sort of nonsense," Littler recalled.
Kris Harrison argued that he and Lucy were watching a news segment on gun violence, when he asked her if she would like to see his gun. He then said he led her into his bedroom to show off his Glock 9mm semi-automatic handgun. Kris – who is a recovering alcoholic – said he relapsed on the day of his argument with Lucy and drank an entire bottle of white wine.
"As I lifted the gun to show her I suddenly heard a loud bang," he said. "I did not understand what had happened. Lucy immediately fell."
