An Ohio lawyer tried to gun down his ex-wife in a crowded restaurant … but prosecutors say his plan fell apart because he forgot one pretty important step — taking the safety off.
Matthew Exton walked into Sabira in Toledo in April 2025, allegedly sent a drink to his ex-wife’s table and spit toward her family before leaving … only to come back with a gun.
Prosecutors say Exton marched straight toward the table and tried to fire a bullet at his ex-wife, but the gun didn’t go off because the safety was still on … and the entire interaction was captured on video…
