Sorry to hear that Minnie. Was Nashville where he lived?
When is all the craziness going to end...people getting shot, drugs and precription med. overdoses, parents killing their children and children killing parents, etc.... etc....etc. I wonder what this will come to?

 

[Minnie]

Yes he lived in Nashville, details are very uncertain at this time.

I so hate to hear this. I really liked Steve McNair. I wonder if it was a jealous boyfriend/husband thing, him being caught with this woman, the reason they were both dead, whether he owned the place, whether drugs were involved. So sad!

Authorities are hinting strongly that this is a murder suicide. Mc Nair still has a house in Nashville were his wife and children stay most of the time. He also owns a couple of condo's around Nashville. He split time between Nashville and his home in Mississppi.This is very sad Mc Nair highly thought of in the community, seemed very nice and cordial the few times I had the pleasure to be around him. He will be missed.

I got the impression LE was hinting at a suicide-murder. This young woman appears to have a close friend. This is what LE said at the PC. The officer,Don Aaron, speaking at the PC said they were not ruling anything out.

If it was a murder / suicide, she did it. He had multiple gunshot wounds, and she had only one...
