"I understand she was so upset the jail had to give her medication to calm her down," her defense attorney said.
Police say Chinasia removed the magazine to the gun and pointed it at her brother and pulled the trigger, not knowing there was a bullet in the chamber.
"I know when people play with guns - and I'm not saying that that is what happened, these are just allegations," the defense attorney said. "Unfortunate things happened."
The attorney pleaded that his client's non-criminal background the bond should be low. The judge admitted there was a tragic set of circumstances, but set the bond at $75,000.
