Mystery

Shot and hung OR hung and shot. Anyone wanna' take a guess? :confused:

Grosse Pointe Woods man found shot, hanging in home

This will be an interesting one to follow.

Sounds like this guy ticked off the wrong hombre. The piece doesn't say if the house had been burgled, but doesn't sound like it. Hmmm....

Wait and see, I guess.

Mrs. Calormine, with the 9mm, in the sitting room. "Hang yourself now, Bob, or I'll shoot."

There was an episode of one of those police procedurals (I think it was a CSI) in which a man attached a "bungee" type elastic cord to his pistol, with the other end affixed to a point up the flue of his fireplace. He then shot and killed himself, and the pistol went "schwoop" into the fireplace and up the flue. The investigators, of course, were convinced that it was a murder, because there was no firearm found anywhere at the scene! I can imagine being pretty perplexed myself if I was on that investigation. Of course, it being TV, the intrepid heroes eventually discovered what had happened, and everyone lived happily ever after. Well, not the guy who shot himself, I guess....

All that said - yeah, this is a strange case. I would be very interested to hear updates if anyone manages to keep up with the story.

Grosse Pointers are rather odd but given the proximity to Detroit nothing will surprise me.

To close to home. Maybe I should move! :image035:

Does it really matter?

Lesson learned - use a steel framed handgun to stage elaborate suicide/murder scene.

In the immortal words of the late Paul Harvey, here's "the rest of the story",

Medical examiner: Grosse Pointe Woods man died from gunshot to the head

BTW. Correct English. It's "hanged" not hung.
