A woman who shot and killed an army veteran during a dispute over a parking space at a Walmart in North Lauderdale, Florida, will not face criminal charges, according to a memo from the Broward County State Attorney's Office. The incident occurred on June 30 and was captured on video, including footage from a Tesla dashcam and eyewitness accounts. The conflict began when two drivers tried to take the same parking spot, leading to a brief standoff before the situation escalated. The victim, Bart DiGuglielmo, 62, was shot by Melissa Payne, who was shopping with her niece and niece's baby. According to the memo, DiGuglielmo left his car and entered the store before returning. Witnesses reported hearing him say he was going to "mess her car up" and "**** her **** up." He then sped off, parked, and returned to Payne's car looking "visibly angry." Payne was seen exiting her car with a gun in one hand and a phone in the other while calling her husband. She was heard yelling, "If you keep coming up to me, I'm going to ******* shoot you!" Despite these warnings, DiGuglielmo continued to approach Payne "aggressively," according to the memo. Payne backed away, and when DiGuglielmo turned back and approached her again, she fired her gun, hitting him in the stomach. Payne’s husband told police that she said during the call, "bae, I shot. Call the cops." Detectives concluded that Payne was in a public place and had a right to be there. As she was not a convicted felon, she had a right to own and carry a firearm, and therefore was not doing anything unlawful at the time she used deadly force, according to the memo. Stephen Zaccor, the homicide trial unit's division chief with the state attorney, wrote that the state could not prove that Payne's fear of death or bodily harm was not reasonable. Under Florida's "stand your ground" law, Payne was not required to wait to be attacked or to retreat if her fear was reasonable before using deadly force.
