I guess it's good that she is showing remorse but she will still have to pay for what she has done.

Saying you're sorry is easy. It's just words afterall.

Murder is an irreversable crime. What was she thinking?

Curious as to motive. Unless she is just deranged, she had a reason and she might have even been justified in killing him.

Interesting that she's sorry about what she did. I think that means she didn't kill her husband because of any abuse (either directed towards her or their children). Very few women would admit to being sorry in that case, as they believe they have done what's best, or what had to be done.
I am not much of a prediction person, but I think this woman might have just felt trapped in the marriage. A lot of men and women feel this way, of course. However, I think it's different when your spouse is the leader of a church. She seemed withdrawn and quiet, while her husband was making new friends all over the place.
Depression and seeing her husband wildly succeed probably drove her nuts.

Look for a boyfriend heading for the hills as we speak.
also look for her to claim abuse - with little proof. it's her only hope.

I was thinking the same. But,if it was abuse I would think she would have turned herself in with some kind of explanation.
This looks like it was pre-meditated, as she had booked the vacation rental prior to the murder.

He slurped his soup.Hey...soup slurpin' can be verrrry annoying. I stopped my soup slurpin' habits for just that reason. Cost me hundreds in therapy.

It depends on the kind of abuse. There can be some kinds that are almost too horrible to mention...and she might feel that, in some way, she shares the guilt.
Whatever it is...I imagine the truth will come out.

No. There is no justification in killing another human being. But to her credit, she is cooperating with police.

Obviously not about her three kids.

Usually when someone is shot in the back twice, it's premeditated. I don't think she's getting off.

No. There is no justification in killing another human being.Self defense or defense of her children seems like a good reason to me. We don't know the motive yet so its hard to speculate.

That was my thoughts as to why she may have done it. Maybe the kids will tell...
