Bestselling author Jillian Lauren, who is the wife of Weezer bassist Scott Shriner, pled not guilty to charges stemming from the Los Angeles Police Department officer-involved shooting that left her wounded outside of their home in Eagle Rock on April 8. According to the LAPD, Lauren racked her gun and fired it during a standoff with police officers who were in a neighboring yard conducting a search for hit-and-run suspects who had fled the scene of a nearby traffic collision earlier that day. Body-worn camera footage and home-surveillance video later released by the LAPD appeared to show Lauren pointing her gun toward a fence which officers were standing behind.
