Chris Ferrell was released on $150,000 bond on Monday (Dec. 16) following a lengthy court hearing that revealed new details about the shooting of singer Wayne Mills and Ferrell's claim that it was done in self-defense.
Wayne Mills, leader of the outlaw-country Wayne Mills Band, was killed during an altercation with a bar owner in Nashville early Saturday morning (Nov. 23). Police say Pit and Barrel owner Chris Ferrell shot the 44-year-old. Ferrell said the 5AM shooting was in self-defense.
