In an apartment in downtown Nashville, the body of former Baltimore Ravens quarterback Steve McNair was discovered next to that of Sahel 'Jenni' Kazemi on July 4, 2009. The entire country was horrified by McNair's passing.
The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department classified the incident as a murder-suicide and came to the conclusion that Kazemi killed McNair by shooting him in the head, perhaps when he was taking a nap on the sofa of his rented condominium. Then, as she lay down next to him, Kazemi shot herself in the head.
It is normal to be curious about those who McNair left behind and how they are doing now.
