Authorities said that a woman gunned down her husband after she claimed to have found photos and messages "indicating" that he was having an affair.
The woman, 50-year-old Nicole Ward, allegedly told her husband, 53-year-old Damian, to "pack his bags and leave the house," causing a verbal altercation to escalate, Law & Crime reported.
Charging documents obtained by FOX5 state that Nicle Ward then allegedly blasted her husband with a .357 S&B Magnum revolver.
The fatal shooting took place on July 19th, according to a press release from the Prince George's County Police Department (PGPD). Officers were called to the couple's home in the 13200 block of Old Chapel Road at 1:45 a.m., and upon arriving on scene, found Damian Ward suffering from a single gunshot wound. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
"The preliminary investigation revealed the suspect shot the victim during an argument," PGPD said in a statement. Nicole Ward's charging documents state that she allegedly told police that she found photos and messages on a second phone belonging to her husband, which sparked the fight between them.
She reportedly told police that the content proved her husband "was having an extramarital affair with another woman." It is unclear if Damian Ward responded to the cheating accusations before he was fatally shot.
Nicole Ward has been charged with first- and second-degree murder and other related charges.
As of Wednesday, July 23rd, she was in the custody of the Department of Corrections on a no-bond status.
People described Damian Ward and his wife, Nicole, as great neighbors, a seemingly happy couple. They said that Damian Ward was a big, friendly guy, with an even bigger heart.
If anyone has information about Damian Ward's death, PGPD said to contact the homicide detective unit at 301-516-2512, the Miami Herald reported. Tips can also be shared with Crime Solvers online, the "P3 Tips" app, or by calling 1-866-411-TIPS.
I think I see the problem. He should have just ruan away.
That was stupid. She could have destroyed him with alimony and killed him slowly and painfully over the course of many years, and get the house to boot.
Now she just gets the big grey bar house...
,,, just as this is a great advert for S&W, it’s a caution to not be over cell phoned.
Yeah. See my post #42...
There’s no fury like a woman scorned, or something.
,,, we die at 27 but we're buried at 72. :)
she did it....
The old 2nd Phone with the pictures and texts of the person you are cheating with on it trap !
:)
S&B makes ammo. S&W makes revolvers.
.........”blasted her husband with a .357 S&B Magnum revolver....”....maybe I have been living under a rock but I can’t identify an “S&B” Magnum revolver....am I missing something....??

Just a thought but next time could we see the original photo before it was improved and cleaned up? 😉

If You Wanna Be Happy (1963 hit)
Song by Jimmy Soul
If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So from my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you.
Don’t let your friends say you have no taste
Go ahead and marry anyway
Though her face is ugly, her eyes don’t match
Take it from me, she’s a better catch.
....
Say man (hey, baby)
I saw your wife the other day
(Yeah?)
Yeah, an’ she’s ugly
(Yeah, she’s ugly, but she sure can cook, baby)
Yeah, alright.
Hillary chose a much worse torture for Bill.
Is there a “W”, Pat?.......................
