A woman whose body was found in her home Wednesday morning was shot dead by her husband, who then turned the gun on himself, Davie police said today.
Officers found the bodies of Marilyn Ann Mass, 57, and Jerold Hoffer, 65, at about 10:30 a.m. in the 2800 block of Morning Glory Lane. They'd been dead since Monday, authorities said.
According to police, Hoffer shot Mass in the head while she was in the kitchen cooking dinner. He then went to the family room and shot himself in the head, said police spokesman Sgt. Rob Choquette.
Mass had served Hoffer with divorce papers in September, Choquette said.
Relatives had asked police to stop by the home because they hadn't heard from the pair since Monday.
