A father in Ohio gunned down his 24-year-old daughter with a pistol during an argument that “revolved around smoking in the house” and then “expressed zero remorse” about it when being interviewed by police, according to prosecutors.

Franklin Thompson, 64, of Sycamore Township, was found wandering a block away from his home with the murder weapon in his pocket after the early Monday morning shooting, which landed him in jail on a charge of first-degree murder, according to the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office. His daughter, Rebecca Thompson, was found by her 18-year-old sister with a fatal gunshot wound after Thompson allegedly fired multiple rounds at her.
