Judge orders retrial in Bambi mother murder
A US judge today ordered a retrial in the infamous ‘Bambi’s Mummy’ shooting, which has continued to generate controversy and media interest ever since the seemingly random murder shocked an entire nation.
The famous young fawn Bambi became an orphan after the brutal woodland murder. Following intense pressure to make an arrest, police finally charged Elmer Fudd, a lone hunter with learning difficulties linked to a chronic speech defect. Mr Fudd, described as a ‘short friendless social outcast with an interest in firearms’, was an easy fit for the desperate detectives even though he always maintained he was out ‘wabbit hunting’ at the time of the shooting.
