Dick Cheney shot a lawyer in the face for a lot less than what the salon owner did. He left the guy lie bleeding in an out building all night and agreed to have him driven to hospital if he made this statement as soon as he could talk. Load of birdshot in the face at ~25 feet.
Here the lawyer apologizes to Cheney, and his family for the trouble an inconvenienced he caused. Who's Cheney's wife?
