Sara and Bill have been married for six months. They had been dating for years when they decided it was time to get married. Bill works the midnight shift and gets home when Sara leaves for her job as a Kindergarten teacher. When they were dating they never had a problem with the varying

work schedules, but lately it has become a real problem for Sara to handle. Sara decides that she is going to surprise Bill with a half-year anniversary present. Bill is a huge fan of shooting and guns. Sara went and purchased a new .357 revolver for him. She decided to take off of work and get the gun and bring it home so the two of them could go out shooting. When she purchased the gun the store owner showed her how to load the gun. She thought it would be a good idea to load it for her husband to save him time when they go to the shooting range. She goes home and tries to be as quiet as possible knowing that Bill would be sleeping. She enters her home and starts to hear some strange noises coming from her upstairs bedroom. She slowly goes up the stairs. She removes the .357 revolver from her purse because it sounds like she might need it. She slowly opens the door to her bedroom and shockingly sees her husband in bed with her best friend and first grade teacher Becky. She had always talked to Becky about Bill and some of the issues they were having. Becky had been taking off work a few times a month because she said she had to help out a friend. Now at this instant Sara knew what she meant. Sara reacts without thinking. She is so mad at the sight of both of them having sex. She raises the gun and says to Bill and Becky "If you both want to be with each other, you can be with each other for eternity!" Bill and Becky both scream not to, that they were sorry. Sara empties the gun in both of them. Bill and Becky are killed.
