On Monday afternoon, a Colorado Springs woman posted on her Facebook wall that she'd caught her husband in bed with another woman. Less than an hour later, police responded to what was later declared to be a murder-suicide at the couple's home.
The Colorado Springs Gazette reported on Monday evening that Aaron Sevey, a decorated Iraq War veteran had died of multiple gunshot wounds. A coroner ruled that his wife, Pamela Sevey, died of a single self-inflicted gunshot wound.
KRDO in Colorado Springs reports that Pamela Sevey posted on her Facebook wall at 3:10 PM that she'd caught her husband in bed with another woman. According to 7News in Denver, she posted the following: "just walked in on my husband in bed with another woman. Real nice." Police received a 911 call less than 30 minutes later.
A family friend of the Seveys, the well-known detective and bail bondsman Bobby Brown, told KRDO that the couple had been experiencing marital woes for some time.
The couple leaves behind 16-year-old twins.
