Farr was sentenced to 25 years in prison for shooting 22-year old Heather Wilson. The incident took place in the parking lot outside Wilson’s apartment building in Council Bluffs. Wilson was putting her children – Tyson, then 19 months, and a 4-year-old – in her car at 5:40 a.m. when gunfire erupted. A neighbor heard the shots and ran out of his apartment to find Wilson lying on the ground. Wilson had been shot eight times. One of those rounds struck Wilson – then her infant – in the right arm. Both recovered from their wounds.
Investigators said it was $6,000 from a tax return that set the shooting in motion. Council Bluffs police detectives had pieced together information from witnesses and arrested Farr at his home in Harlan. Farr will serve his jail time concurrently with a 5-year sentence for willful injury causing bodily injury. He must serve 17-and-a-half years before he is eligible for parole.
