On a cold morning in early 2023, police in a small mountain town received a shaken call from a 70-year-old man. Through tears, he told them he had shot his wife—his partner of a decade. Dispatch rushed emergency services to the home, hoping there was still time to save her. But when officers arrived, they discovered something far worse. She hadn’t been shot that morning. She had been shot four days earlier. The woman had grown up on the East Coast, a mother of two with deep family ties and a love for the outdoors. Even in her early sixties, she was a dedicated athlete and competitive bodybuilder—strong, disciplined, and impossible not to admire. She was warm, quick-witted, and the type of person everyone seemed to get along with. Police knew who had ended her life. What they didn’t know was why. And the explanation her husband offered… let’s just say, it doesn’t come close to adding up. #interrogationpsychology #interrogation
