  "account": "Darnell Reid, a Brampton man, pleaded guilty to murdering his girlfriend, Darien Henderson-Bellman, in July 2020 and then shooting himself. Reid, who is now paralyzed from the waist down, is facing a mandatory life sentence and is currently confined to a wheelchair. The incident occurred on July 28, 2020, when Reid shot Henderson-Bellman and himself due to severe injuries sustained from a bullet wound to the back of his head. Reid was charged with breaching a no-contact order with Henderson-Bellman seven times before the murder. On the day of the incident, Reid had jumped a curb and hit two vehicles, was impaired by marijuana, and had seven months earlier been charged with breaching the no-contact order. Henderson-Bellman was shot three times and had skull fractures, memory impairments, and mobility issues as a result of the incident. The Crown later withdrew the original assault and breach charges.",
