Steve Mcnair – Mechelle Cartwright Wedding Photo

Above is a photo of Steve and Mechelle Mcnair’s wedding (June 21, 1997).

According to nynewsdaily.com “The police department has concluded that Steve McNair was murdered by Sahel Kazemi and that, in turn, Sahel Kazemi killed herself with a single gunshot wound to her head,”.

Ronal W. Serpas, the Nashville chief of police, added “While we may never know exactly what drove Miss Kazemi to make that decision on that Saturday morning, the totality of the evidence clearly points to a murder-suicide.”

Let me quote another interesting statement made by the police.

“Based upon the appearance of the crime scene, evidence collected, autopsy findings, laboratory results and an incredible amount of work by our investigative team, there is no doubt we believe now at this time that McNair was seated on the sofa and likely was asleep, and we believe that Kazemi shot him in the right temple, then shot him twice in the chest, and then shot him a final time in the left temple,” Serpas said. “Kazemi then positioned herself next to McNair on the sofa and shot herself once in the right temple and expired.”

So I guess the initial theory of a murder-suicide seems to be the case after all.

There was also an angle that police said could be the reason why she killed him. Police said that Kazemi believed that Steve Mcnair has another girlfriend besides her and that she followed the girl but did not confronted her.
