Ogburn also suffered a gunshot wound to his left hand from when he was playing with the gun and it discharged.
During an interview with detectives Ogburn said “he knew he shot Aden prior to fleeing the home,” the affidavit read. “He stated he was trying to avoid capture until he could get his own self-inflicted gunshot wound taken care of.”
Ogburn was on house arrest at the time of the shooting and in May had cut his ankle bracelet.
