At the time, authorities said the argument stemmed from McMurrough getting mad at his mom for ramming his grandfather's car. During the argument, McMurrough grabbed a gun from a vehicle parked in the driveway, went back to the home and shot his mom multiple times.
Records show McMurrough will serve his time concurrently and will receive credit for his time behind bars already.
