Pennsylvania judge convicted of trying to execute her boyfriend by shooting him in the head

JUST IN: Pennsylvania judge convicted of trying to execute her sleeping boyfriend by shooting him in the head.

Magisterial judge Sonya M. McKnight shot her then-boyfriend in the temple while he was sleeping last year.

The incident happened after Michael McCoy tried ending their relationship, telling her to move out of the home.

When McCoy told McKnight he was serious about her moving out, she said, "oh, so you're serious."

This was the last thing McCoy heard from McKnight before he was woken up to "massive head pain" and was blind.

McCoy was rushed to the hospital where a gunshot wound to his head was found.

The bullet reportedly entered McCoy's right temple and exited his left temple, according to the New York Post. The bullet was millimeters from ending his life.

This wasn't the first time that McKnight shot one of her partners. During an incident with her former husband, the judge shot him in the groin after telling him to move furniture.

She wasn't prosecuted at the time because she claimed "self-defense."

McKnight faces 60 years in prison.
