In the documents, Nina says that her husband left their home following an argument. After he left the home, she logged into his Snapchat account and discovered a video of him and another woman.
Using her investigative skills, she was able to track his location and called up two girlfriends to come and help her confront her husband, the mistress, and his brother, Seth Thomas.
And, she grabbed Earl’s 9mm Beretta pistol.
Upon arriving at the Airbnb that Earl and Seth had rented, Nina found the two brothers in bed with women. In her own words, she stated that she put the gun to her husband’s head intending to “scare him.” She said that she “took out the magazine thinking that the gun could not fire.”
But, there was a round in the chamber.
Fortunately, Earl was able to wrestle the gun away from his wife. In true millennial fashion, the entire incident was recorded in cell phone footage.
Nina Thomas and her two friends were all arrested. Nina was booked for burglary of a residence with the intent to commit aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and family violence. She was able to bond out of jail. She was also ordered to stay 200 yards away from her husband and his alleged mistress.
