I don't see why a young, pretty girl would off herself and her meal ticket like that. I suspect an outsider. Most likely homicide.
she had to be real messed up not to realize what she had. she's openly dating a star in that town, not to much of bigger star in that town. she's driving a nice car, living free in a condo, why does she think she needs to be married or even have him exclusively at such a young age. you would think a twenty year old would at least realize that. there has to be more, and no, not the someone else did it more. this is fairly obvious, people watch too much law and order. there had to be another problem there in the relationship for her to give up so much.
Have you ever gone out with a girl especially one 18-21, they are bat**** crazy. They don't think logically.
the only thing that sounded fishy to me was how the hell did the gun fall under her. Let's say you shot yourself in the head, where would you do it? Forehead? Temple? The gun would fall in front of you, you would more than likely fall backwards. Side of the head, gun would fall next to you. Were obviously dealing with young dumbasses here. i'm not saying Norfleet, That Jett Jackson dude, or Sahel are Rhodes Scholars, but why the **** would you post **** like that on myspace? Seriously? Some nerd in the silicon valley has it stored on some server somewhere. That picture said July 2nd, and didn't neighbors say they saw McNair friday night or something?
I read some article a long time ago to dispel the myth about getting shot. Supposedly the human body is heavier in the front so they should fall forward in most cases. Also, the impact of a bullet is not powerful enough to counteract that weight. So in all those movies when someone is shot, they should actually fall forward, not backwards.
I don't get why the media is being so judgmental with Steve McNair. Yeah he had an affair, but so do a LOT of people and they are often well-respected members of society. Kobe Bryant slept with a young woman and nobody even acknowledges it anymore, and yet I'm supposed to believe that Steve McNair's death isn't tragic because of his infidelity?
A long time ago I got into some trouble with the law at 2am on a Saturday. I was riding in a car that got pulled over. Eventually, I learned that being out on the streets at 2am wasn't a great idea, just too many cops and drunks out there at that time. I may be missing out on some fun by not staying out until 2am, but sometimes it's smarter to be safe than sorry. I also avoid extra-marital affairs.
To add onto what proffesorjay just posted a gun can in fact fall under the victim of a self inflicted gunshot quite easily. For most of my career (NY and DC) I worked homicide. I have seen just about every kind of death you can imagine. How the gun might have gotten under her can sometimes be easily explained by how the victim shot themself. Most people under severe and suicidal stress a lot of times will literally ball up to find a comfort zone ie: getting on their knees, crunching down and crouching forward. If she was doing this and shot herself through the roof of her mouth she would have fallen forward and the gun would have dropped beneath her hidden from view. She would then look like she would be laying on the floor on her stomach or on her side asleep.
That is an interesting perspective coming from a detective. Its like real life CSI. The BBS never ceases to amaze me with the things I learn from it.
And seemingly every actor/actress that ever lived. You're only as faithful as your options and being popular, rich and attractive means a lot of pretty people driving to the hoop. Some people may stay in marriages simply because they don't have anyone or anything el$e to fall back on. My first clue she was crazy and probably did it? Telling the cops during that traffic stop that she was "high, not drunk."
Unless the blast from the discharged firearm is strong enough to knock your now lifeless body, arm and the gun in unpredictable directions.
