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.

I presume she’s Iranian.
Perhaps it was just Sudden Jihad Syndrome (SJS).
LOL I appreciate your candor - it would have made a good joke.
Probably another woman other than his wife
Here we see the wages of sin; adultery is dangerous
Another thing to consider is how personal intimate relations can be regarded by people from the Middle East; it seems like Sahel took this relationship very personal; not casual at all; McNair paid the price, as did Kazemi. Now the survivors have to pick up the pieces and go on. Sad all around
Gadzooks! The only thing to add here... 
is "...the bullet is in her yet..."
I sure hope Brett doesn’t have a Muslim girlfriend. She might end his string of comebacks.
LOL.
What is it with big-time atheletes being giant scumbags? Can anyone explain?
a sense of entitlement from sycophants telling you how great you are
What’s her yet????
It's pretty simple. They're surrounded by yes-men and enablers, coddled, and given practically everything they want from the time they're teenagers, and after a while they naturally come to believe that they can do anything they want to, when they want to.
Big-time athletes, movie stars, and pop artists are America's version of royalty.
Never date a 20 year old Iranian...er....um...Persian.
The Iranian culture is flat out violent. There is no other way to explain it.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Nashville cops told Neely, "Wayne we're giving you half an hour to clean up the apartment before we get there." (and they weren't talking about the bodies and the guns either).It's rather obvious that Mr. McNair had a fianceè in every corner of town.
Could well be. Or the time was used to stage the scene.
I’m sure forensics concluded that the gun was fired from her hand.
He dialed a friend first, then 911. What was there to stage?
The cops are clear that it was murder/suicide.
So what was Wayne Neeley doing all this time? Staring at the bodies? Contemplating the meaning of life and death? Yikes, how ghoulish at best. It might be a murder-suicide, with the police allowing him to tamper with the scene. Or was something else involved? Just think about it. Does it makes no sense to wait FOURTY-FOUR minutes before calling 911? NO!
You must be referring to Mike “Twat Face” Lupica. I read the screed as well. Of course he fails to realize that liberal policies like the Great Society have caused the situation he so decries.
The wages of sin is death.
