It sounds like either a murder-suicide or there is a possibility (my personal opinion my you) that it was Steve McNair’s wife, Mechelle McNair, who shot them, since rumors are that these two were having an affair. Sahel was shot once in the head and Steve was shot multiple times.

It was not a murder suicide…police reports early said unless I did not read right, that the pistol was hard to find. If a suicide, won’t the pistom just drop? How can someone shoot someone, shoot themselves, and throw the pistol way across the room somewhere where it can’t be found?
Someone else did it..

I personally don’t think it was the wife. I believe if it were the wife who killed them both; (a) the bodies wouldn’t have been in the same room because someone would have ran once the shooting began, and (b) the mistress would have had more than one gunshot wound.

It was within her reach, so it is still a possibility. It could have dropped and slid across to where it was found. Hopefully soon there will be more info. If she had gunshot reside on her hands, then it is a big possibility.

wasn’t the gun found UNDER the mistress? murder/suicide is my vote

i’m sorry but how often does a man really leave his wife for the mistress. it happens but not all the time. the family is stating that she said how he was supposed to be divorcing the wife adn this that and the other but who is to say that he really told her that. on the other hand he could have been telling her that. you are not supposed to speak ill of the dead so i am not going to say what i really wanna say about her or him but the only people who i feel bad for in this situation is his wife and his children

I love Steve McNair. I can’t believe this s**t. RIP to you Steve. You will forever be my #1 quarterback. I have NEVER heard one thing about Steve that was not positive. This is horrible. RIP to you too Sahel. (but I will have to retract that if it comes to light that you killed my boy) Too sad. And if he WAS cheating on his wife, how is she supposed to feel? This is bad.
