A Halstad woman who fatally shot her boyfriend with a large caliber handgun while recording a stunt for YouTube tried to talk him out of it, according to transcripts released by the Norman County attorney. The files confirm 22-year-old Pedro Ruiz encouraged Monalisa Perez to shoot at a thick book he was holding. Although transcripts of the 9-1-1 call were made public, prosecutor James Brue refused to release a recording, and also would not release video of the actual shooting, saying it’s clearly offensive to common sensibilities. It happened nearly a year ago and Perez received a six-month jail sentence.
