Snapped Bernadette Perusquia and Juan Perusquia

Status:  Incarcerated


The story of Bernadette Perusquia and her husband, Juan is the subject of Oxygen's Snapped show, season 13, episode 3. Oxygen describes the show as: Bernadette Perusquia is a school nurse who is accused of shooting her husband Juan, a security guard, in May 2003, but claims self-defense..

Bernadette Perusquia was convicted and sentenced to 15 years

Bernadette’s defense at trial was that she shot Juan, her husband, in self-defense because he  was  close  enough  to  lunge  at  her  and  was  going  to  kill  her.    Bernadette  testified  that  she  pulled  a  gun  from  her  waistband  thinking  that  the  gun  would  stop  Juan  from  continuing  to  advance  towards  her.    Bernadette  had  hidden  the  gun  in  her  waistband  to  prevent  Juan  from obtaining  the  gun  during  an  argument  in  which  Juan  had  already  knocked  her  over  a  recliner,  pulled her down on the bed, and grabbed her breasts and genital area.  When Juan continued to advance  towards  her,  she  shot  him.    Bernadette  testified  that  she  was  instructed  during  her  training for a concealed handgun license to show the gun to the attacker in an attempt to frighten him, but to shoot if the effort to frighten the attacker did not work.
