Annie Oakley was arrested in 1901 for allegedly shooting a man named Frank Butler during a performance, but the incident was largely exaggerated and misunderstood. She was accused of attempting to murder Butler, who was actually her husband and a fellow performer, after a misunderstanding regarding a shooting trick. The charges were dropped, and she was released shortly after, as it became clear there was no malice involved. Oakley continued her successful career in shooting and performance after this incident.
