A West Palm Beach man fatally shot his estranged wife and then killed himself.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office reports that 36-year-old Gary Jean Pierre got into an argument with 26-year-old Monette Dubuisson at her apartment, where he also used to live, on Wednesday afternoon. At some point, Pierre pulled a gun and shot her. Dubuisson's sister, who was at the apartment in another room, heard the noise and walked into the room just in time to see Pierre shoot himself.
Pierre had a 7-year-old boy, and Dubuisson had a 9-year-old girl. Both children lived at the apartment but were at school when the shooting occurred.
A compilation of daily news articles from around the United States about deaths (including both people and animals) that appear to occur in the context of a past or present intimate relationship, focusing on 2009-present. (NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
