John Jay Osborne, 34, claimed he snapped after his girlfriend told him she was happy she wasn’t having his baby during an argument.
A Long Beach man on trial for murder in the 2019 fatal shooting of his girlfriend told a jury he snapped during an argument during which she had brought up a previous miscarriage, and that he fired the gun without looking as they began walking away from one another.
Osborne then walked west across Magnolia Avenue and down an alley, past the home the couple shared, while discarding his jacket and the holster, which contained an extra 10-round magazine, he testified Wednesday, Nov. 2, in Long Beach Superior Court.His public defender, Kevin McGurk, argued Osborne shot her in a moment of passion rather than judgment, which would equate to voluntary manslaughter, not murder.
He claimed his mother had offered to get him a motel room along Pacific Coast Highway, where he stayed for four days and looked up attorney information. HeThe two met on Christmas Eve in 2018 and began dating in early 2019 with Romero moving into Osborne’s home shortly after, he said. Osborne testified that Romero openly used methamphetamine before they started dating, but started to hide her use after he told her he wanted her to stop.
They returned home, but Romero “did disappear for a period of time,” leading Osborne to become worried and upset, suspecting she was using methamphetamine, he testified. He confronted her when she got back to the house.
