The shooting death of the wife of a former law partner at Atlanta’s Fisher & Phillips wasn’t an accident but, instead, was undertaken with “an abandoned and malignant heart,” according to a Fulton County grand jury. 

On Thursday, the grand jury charged Claud “Tex” McIver, 74, with malice murder in the shooting death last fall of his wife, Diane McIver. The grand jury also charged McIver with felony murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, and three counts of unlawfully influencing witnesses in the case.
