A former Glasgow resident has been found guilty of two felonies following a trial Monday in Seventh Judicial District Court in Glendive.
Terry Fuhrmann was convicted of assault with a weapon and criminal destruction of a communication device. The charges stem from a February 2nd incident in which prosecutors alleged Fuhrmann threatened his wife with a knife and damaged her cellphone when she attempted to call 911.
During the trial, prosecutors presented testimony from the victim, a 911 operator and law enforcement officers, along with two recorded emergency calls.
Fuhrmann represented himself and denied the allegations, arguing that his wife had fabricated the story and that prosecutors had not provided evidence proving he committed the crimes.
The jury deliberated for approximately 30 minutes before returning guilty verdicts on both counts around 5 Monday evening.
Fuhrmann remains in the Dawson County Correctional Facility and is scheduled for sentencing December 29th.
