ATLANTA -- A woman who had been accused of killing her brother has been found not guilty on all counts.

Jurors deliberated again today after staying late last night trying to decide if Deborah Joyce was guilty or if it was a case of self-defense.

Joyce says she killed her brother, Anthony Scofield, as he came at her with a hammer in May of 2003.

Her attorneys say she was battered and suffering from post-traumatic stress.

Prosecutors say she was trying to gain control of the family's estate and had grown tired of his demands when she shot him 8 times.

Joyce's younger brother, Charles Scofield, testified against her in the trial. He says their brother was mentally ill, but not dangerous.
