Ugh. Lots of good guys with guns on the scene and still ends tragically. No idea what else there is to do but send Ts&Ps.
Ruger LCP II is decent; despite it's tiny size (smaller than a cell phone), it has fairly low recoil. How tall is she? If not that, then Sig Sauer P365 or Springfield Hellcat.

Guns and alcohol a deadly combo for the judge. Dude had quite the arsenal, 47 guns and plenty of ammo. Of course he is quickly out on bail. Orange County judge charged with drunkenly shooting wife pleads not guilty
I can second the 365. I have two of them: the Macro and 365X. Great guns that conceal well. They have a Rose package available that is marketed for women and has more feminine aesthetics
We need to do away with the "good guy with a gun" nonsense anyway. There are no good guys with guns committing crimes with them. By definition. And they're not deputized to do anything with their guns for public safety. Which is only one of MANY reasons they almost never do. They are allowed to use them for self-defense, which also almost never happens. Compared to gun crimes, it's a microscopic number. Meanwhile, gun owners are statistically 43-times more likely to have their own guns used against a member of the household than to ever use it in self-defense. In practice, guns increase the safety of their owners such a tiny % of the time, it's almost immeasurable. The only practical benefit to the gun owner is feeling like it makes then secure. So let's stop using the term, because nobody cares about the "good guy with a gun". We are concerned about all the BAD guys with guns. They may not out-number the good guys with guns, but they're the ones out there using their guns to murder people. I will say this about all the good guys with guns: they're not that good. Because if they were, they'd be fighting like hell right along with the rest of us to outlaw assault rifles & high-capacity magazines, far more effective and universal background checks and wait periods, and to make it much harder to buy a gun. If you're a good guy with a gun, you wouldn't sit on your hands or keep voting for republicans who facilitate every mass shooting in the country. You'd join the fight to make your right to bear arms more secure and less drenched in the blood of innocents. Because the more certain way to ensure that the government will eventually come after all your guns, is to keep allowing the worst people in society buy ANY guns, ANY time they want to, and carry them ANY place they want to, with no permit. Which is where the QOP just keeps on driving us.
