A marine who served four years and survived a tour in Iraq comes home to New Mexico only to be shot.
The person accused of pulling the trigger? His own stepfather.
“He went into the house…got his shotgun. Came back to the front door and pulled the trigger,” said Josh Branch.
Josh relived the horrifying night when he said he was shot by his own stepfather.
He said the two got into an argument at their home in Kirtland and that is when Lawrence Branch pulled out a gun and shot him.
“He blew the back of my knee out. I had to get a graft from this leg for the vein,” said the war veteran.
