I guess he won't be using her as a punching bag anymore.

Kenner woman who shot estranged husband was hysterical, apologetic as police arrived

That's a little better than Amy Bishop, who basically said that the roomful of dead people she left in her wake didn't exist.

I blame her.

She should have shut the hell up and left years ago....

Terrible. One person never relenting on demeaning remarks and the other constantly making room for them to grow a real and proper pair.

Feel sorry for the gal and now she’ll live with her action forever.

She’s sorry now, but the fact is, she waited and waited and absorbed all the abuse. If what she claims happened is true, she allowed her three daughters to see her allowing this to continue, all the while producing more and more children, all the while sinking deeper into this acknowledged trap. Sad that she didn’t seek help at least for herself to get out, vs facilitating it all. The boiling point did not have to be the only way out. One wonders if she kept this secret from her own family or were they cut off from all outsiders.

Even the children described seeing bruises on their mother over the years.

Unreported physical abuse is an everyday occurance and I have nothing but sympathy for the abused who are too afraid or too controlled to come forward and ask for help.......

What happens in Kenner, stays in Kenner.

One good outcome of her doing the shooting instead of the cops - their dog is still alive.

I know I’m building on scant evidence but it sounds as though the woman has been putting up with a lot, likely for the sake of the children and trying to save face publicly by not seeking help. However now, these same kids will have to live with memories of a frequently violent and abusive father and a mother who killed him. Prayers for her and her kids.

Talk about a perfect example of the psychosis that creates battered wives. The guy beats her and treats her like crap. She finally defends herself, yet is hysterically crying about his death and apologizing when the police come. If it was anyone else who beat her, she would have no guilt about killing them. Its a bizzare and very sad mental state.

I’ve known women who hurt themselves and blamed others. I think it is a common method used by psychotics to gain attention.

“a narrative began to emerge of unreported domestic abuse, which culminated in a deadly confrontation between the couple of 16 years.”

When he is dead, he can’t defend himself.

When he is dead she can make up any story she wants.

"Things have escalated, and here we are today with him being shot," McGregor said.

This is not a funny story, but for some reason that line made me crack up. I was like "Oh, okay, thank you for that elegant summary."

Melissa Desilva, 34, was apologetic as she tried to render aid.

I did not mean to shoot my husband, the third time...
