[A] Florida court had ordered that 43 year-old Navy Capt Lisa Nowak, KC5ZTB, who was facing charges of attempted kidnapping and battery, could be freed on bail.
However, the introduction of the more serious charge that she intended to murder Colleen Shipman reverses that.

Or perhaps it was the stress of dealing with pile-ups on two meters?
[And I speculate that this tragedy might never have happened if the FCC hadn't dropped code requirements for the Tech license. Bring back Morse!]

I've got to be dubious that contesting is what did her in:
Since she's a code-free Tech, she'd pretty much be limited to VHF contests. I have the impression that those events aren't so highly stressful, at least not compared to the big worldwide CW contests on HF.
And anyway, how good could Houston be as a VHF contest QTH? No mountaintops even close!

Yes, and I was just jesting. She should have focused more on her hobby than on a love triangle, it would seem.
Everybody, listen to me,
And return me, my ship.
I'm your captain, I'm your captain,
Although I'm feeling mighty sick.
I've been lost now, days uncounted,
And it's months since I've seen home.
Can you hear me, can you hear me,
Or am I all alone.
If you return me, to my home port,
I will kiss you mother earth.
Take me back now, take me back now,
To the port of my birth.
Am I in my cabin dreaming, or are you really scheming,
To take my ship away from me?
You'd better think about it, I just can't live without it.
So, please don't take my ship from me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah ...
I can feel the hand, of a stranger,
And it's tightening, around my throat.
Heaven help me, Heaven help me,
Take this stranger from my boat.
I'm your captain, I'm your captain,
Although I'm feeling mighty sick.
Everybody, listen to me,
And return me, my ship.
I'm your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm your captain, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
Ohhhh ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
I'm getting closer to my home ...
