It wouldn't have been an apparent murder-suicide anyway. It would have been an ATTEMPTED murder-suicide. This is pathetic to fight over but you could have checked it all you wanted from the Alley but you are wrong. The person you are calling a know it all was right.
No you are soooo wrong! You are one of those people who can not or will not admit they are wrong. I am not the only person who wondered why it said what it did when the lady was still alive. Get over yourself know it all.
no wsaz did not change the headline....i was over in the alley when all this took place wed. night around 8:30 and i checked wsaz when i got home about 10:30pm and the headline said apparent attempted murder-suicide....i do know what im talking about but maybe you should take the time to read before you post
