The article doesn’t specifically say who the perp was, but I inferred from the article that it might have been the husband.
Very sad, either way.
Neighbor Mark Long said Meleanie baby-sat his 3-year-old son and that she and Scott had been having marital problems for the last week. Scott left on Tuesday and Meleanie did not know where he went, but he came back Wednesday, Long said.
was shot to death Wednesday night with her husband in an apparent murder-suicide, police said.
The husband had left on Tuesday night, and came back Wednesday. He apparently shot her and then killed himself.
“Several neighbors said they heard or saw the couple’s children run from the house screaming, “Daddy shot Mommy!” shortly before the 911 Center was called at 6:20 p.m.
The children, 2- and 6-year-old girls and a 10-year-old boy, were in the care of a neighbor and were unhurt, said Wright.” http://ydr.inyork.com/ci_13510354
“...was shot to death Wednesday night with her husband in an apparent murder-suicide...”
