A 71-year-old man has been sentenced to life in prison for fatally shooting three elderly people during a potluck dinner at an Alabama church near Birmingham.
Smith was indicted in the June 16, 2022, shootings of Walter "Bart" Rainey, 84, of Irondale; Sarah Yeager, 75, of Pelham; and Jane Pounds, 84, of Hoover. They were killed during a potluck dinner at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church in Vestavia Hills, a community just southeast of Birmingham.
"I relive the night of June 16 over and over and over, and I probably always will," said Linda Rainey, whose husband was killed. "My heart tells me the shooter will also relive that night over and over."
