A WOMAN on trial for murdering her ex-lover at an Adelaide car wash has told a jury a burglary victim was the real culprit.

TRISTAN Kaye Castle is accused of luring Adrian Paul MacDonald into a car before he was shot dead by her new lover, Jason Bucca, whom she had been seeing for about a week.

But Castle told the jury Bucca was not at the scene and the killer was Wes Gange who had accused MacDonald of stealing his property before firing three shots at him."He pointed the gun at me and told me to drive," she told the South Australian Supreme Court on Tuesday.Castle, 37, and Bucca, 25, have pleaded not guilty to murdering Mr MacDonald, 39, at the Big Bucket Car Wash in Parafield on the morning of February 3, 2013.Prosecutor Jim Pearce SC has alleged Mr MacDonald was unaware that Bucca was hiding in the boot with a gun when Castle enticed him into the front passenger seat.Questioned by her lawyer, Tim Heffernan, Castle said her ex-lover was shot by Mr Gange."When you arrived at the Big Bucket Car Wash, did you know Wes Gange had a gun on him?" Mr Heffernan asked.Castle replied no, adding she had no intention of harming Mr MacDonald in any way when she went to the car wash.She told the jury Bucca was staying in a room at Mr Gange's house, and Mr MacDonald had been accused of taking property belonging to both men.She said she sent numerous text messages to Mr MacDonald about meeting, telling the jury she wanted to sort out matters such as picking up furniture after their break-up.When she told Mr Gange she was meeting her ex-lover, he said he wanted to accompany her as he wanted to get back his computer and the refrigerator he believed Mr MacDonald had taken.But when Mr MacDonald denied the accusations, Mr Gange became very angry and she heard three shots and saw a gun in his hand."I yelled at Wes after it happened and told him we needed to call the ambulance," she said.But she said he grabbed her phone, pointed the gun at her and later threatened to go to her mother's if she told anybody.The trial is continuing.
