Saying she held her fiancé in her arms as he lie dying after being gunned down outside a double wide on Cherry Springs Road, Angela Pack pointed to Michael Cody Mills as the man who pulled the trigger.“He was lying on the ground in front of my car, blood everywhere,” Pack tearfully recalled of the last moments of Bobby Ashburn’s life April 12 after he suffered four gunshot wounds from a 45-caliber gun allegedly wielded by Mills.The defendant was bound to the grand jury on criminal homicide charges following the hearing Tuesday afternoon before General Sessions Judge Bill Locke. Pack was the lone witness during the hearing. Mills remains held in lieu of bond.Pack testified she and her fiancé went to the home of Zach Turner to bring supper to Ashburn’s daughter, Hannah Ashburn.
