Oakland County prosecutors are fighting the release on bond of convicted shooter Sadie Bell after she admitted she shot her lover over his performance in bed.
Sadie Bell was convicted this April of assault with intent to do great bodily harm for shooting her boyfriend, Edward Lee, in the stomach in January of 2013 — but a court has now granted bail pending an appeal.

Chief Assistant Prosecutor Paul Walton said that Bell admitted to police that she had sex with Lee at her apartment, then shot him over his poor performance in bed. She also accused Lee of being a cheater and having affairs.
The court heard that bell had been having a 15 year relationship with the victim, Mr Lee. The prosecutor Paul Walton said that “after a sexual act that she felt he wasn’t performing adequately and accused him then of having an affair, and then took out a gun and shot him.”
Prosecutors said that Bell was “very graphic”, and made a very detailed statement to police explaining exactly why she shot her lover. "She stated that she knew he was having an affair because he wasn’t producing enough ejaculate,” “She also said to the police some very graphic things about how she expected him to perform. In essences she said she was ‘pissed off’, so she shot him.”
Bell had been sentenced to 20 months to 10 years in prison for the shooting and further two years on the gun charge; but her attorney asked the court to grant her bond pending appeal — and the court granted it.
Prosecutors are appealing granting of the the bond ruling. The court ordered a $10,000 cash bond, which Bell hadn’t posted as of Thursday. Walton said Lee, who suffered wounds to his colon and pancreas from the shooting , nearly died and was hospitalized for six weeks. He is still recovering from his injuries.
