Description
Eight fifths of whiskey during a four-day drunk with his wife had left Charles Buerger's mind a blank Saturday-and his wife shot to death. Buerge, who fought police after his arrest, said he was too drunk to remember what happened. Detective Jordan said he planned to file murder charges against Buerger.
