Mary Terry might not be going on trial for the murder of her husband if a Wisconsin man had fallen asleep in front of his television last fall instead of finding himself drawn to the bright flash of a brake light in his living room window and seconds later, the sound of a thudding “doo, doo, doo, doo” heard from the road.

But Terry, 49, is going on trial, a circuit judge in Wisconsin decided Tuesday, because as police allege, the “doo, doo, doo, doo” was the sound of her husband, Donald Britten Jr. being dragged by her truck after she struck him with it in October.

Terry faces felony charges of first-degree homicide and homicide by intoxicated use of a motor vehicle, court records reviewed by Law&Crime show. She has denied any wrongdoing but has not formally entered a plea as of Wednesday. A plea hearing is on the docket for late February.
