ATLANTA — Friends and family of a lawyer who was shot eight times in April say proceeds from a concert in Atlanta will be donated to help pay her medical and therapy bills.

Adina Parson, a 40-year-old attoey, was critically wounded in April when she was shot in front of her apartment in Sandy Spring. Her husband, Michael, was arrested in connection with the incident.

The Atlanta Joual-Constitution (http://bit.ly/T8rVZg ) reports that a benefit concert for Parson is scheduled for 8 p.m. Tuesday at Center Stage in Midtown. She was released from Grady Memorial Hospital last month and has been transferred to the Shepherd Center for rehabilitation.

Michael Parson is being held without bond in the Fulton County Jail on charges including aggravated assault.
