Um... don't you have to be 21 to buy a handgun?

"Did you ever talk to Steve about getting involved with violence?"

Really, “media,” really? This is the question you ask? Just keep your fool mouth closed if this is all you got.

This is the quality of questions we get now?

If she is only 20, then I guess she got a gun illegally?

or through an 'unlicensed' dealer.

that’s the distinction the Tennessean is making. I’m not up to snuff on the nuances of federal/state gun laws.

WHOA

So the ****** could have planned it all out? Perhaps after being pissed off about a DUI? Or perhaps after realizing that he really didn’t plan on leaving his wife and she was just another little fling?

My thinking...

If they found him sitting on the couch, then I imagine he was relaxing and not thinking he was in any danger.

So perhaps he said something off handed and crabby to her about their future together in the middle of a casual fight/argument and it sent her over the edge?

Don’t believe what any family member says about their family after an apparent suicide, by the way. You rarely read about them saying “She was troubled for a long time. We always thought this might be something she could do.”
