A Chillicothe man convicted of accidentally shooting a 73-year-old woman will be in jail for 25 years. According to Wapello County court records, 37-year-old Lee Ryals was drunk when he fired a gun on his property in January 2019. The bullet struck a woman in her home in the back of her head. Her injuries were not life-threatening. Ryals pleaded guilty to reckless use of a firearm and being a felon possessing a firearm. But then last summer, Ryals didn’t show up for his sentencing and then was convicted last December of willfully failing to appear. He will now serve 25 years in jail for all three offenses with those sentences being served consecutively.
