Carly GreggThe 15-year-old girl accused of murdering her mother is exhibiting some strange behavior in court… having an ugly fit of laughter while sitting at the defense table.
Check it out… the Mississippi teen was dressed in a conservative navy blue ensemble as her trial began on Thursday. Her defense attorneys flanked her on either side, sporting serious expressions throughout the trial… though, Carly seemed to enjoy the proceedings as she fought back a few laughs.
While it’s unclear what exactly prompted Carly’s laughter, the video shows her lawyer writing something down on a notepad… which appears to be what prompted the teen’s shocking response.
Gregg is currently on trial for alleged shooting her mother, Ashley Smyliein March… when she was just 14 years old.
She is also accused of trying to kill her stepfather, Heathwho testified about the shooting this week.
Prosecutors played video footage they say shows the harrowing incident in court Tuesday … and you can see Carly holding what appears to be a firearm behind her back before she walks out of frame — and gunshots are heard. Smylie was killed with a .357 Magnum.
Gregg’s legal team is seeking an insanity defense after turning down a plea deal that would have likely landed the teen in prison for 40 years.
In addition to murder, Gregg was charged with attempted murder and tampering with evidence.
We’re sure there will be more to come… so stay tuned.
