Police confirmed Wednesday that ex-NFL star Steve McNair's 20-year-old girlfriend killed him before turning the gun on herself.
They said they may never know what was going through Sahel Kazemi's mind when she shot McNair in his condominium early Saturday, but interviews with friends led detectives to conclude she was becoming increasingly distraught over events in her life, including financial problems. Police said she also suspected McNair was seeing another woman.
Police earlier had labeled McNair's death a homicide, but awaited further tests and investigation before saying for sure what happened.
At one point, Kazemi told an associate that her "personal life was all screwed up," Police Chief Ronal Serpas said. She had mounting debts and had been unable to sell her car. Her roommate was moving, which would have doubled her rent.
"We do know that she was clearly sending a message during the last five to seven days of her life that things were going bad quickly," Serpas said, though there was no indication she told anyone she planned to harm McNair.
Serpas said police believe McNair was asleep on a sofa when Kazemi shot him in the head. She then apparently shot him twice in the chest before shooting him again in the head and then shooting herself.
McNair, a quarterback for the Tennessee Titans most of his career, was shot at a condo he rented with another man. The gun was found underneath Kazemi.
Kazemi's family told reporters that the woman was so confident McNair was divorcing his wife of 12 years that she was preparing to sell her furniture and move in with him.
But associate Mike Mu ... said McNair's wife, Mechelle McNair, "didn't know who this girl is." No records of divorce proceedings have surfaced.

Police said she also suspected McNair was seeing another woman. Um, like his wife?

YIKES! You’d never know by the looks of her that she could be unstable.

You lie down with dogs, you’re going to get fleas. Apparently, sometimes those fleas are armed with large caliber handguns.

Well, we know the last thing that went through her mind was that last bullet.

Lie to a woman and treat her like a disposable entertainment device, and you never know what you're going to get.

LOL. Waaaaaaaht?! His wife is 37 or so. A 37 year old woman can’t be hot? Sarah Palin is in her mid 40s and she’s had four kids and she’s hot.

"shes rather attractive."
The crazy ones usually are very hot.
You have to check her attractiveness, however, against the Hot-Crazy Line or the Vicky Mendoza diagonal. Clearly, this woman was far into the red.
