Feels very weird that she was injured alot and the house was burned professionally a fire fighter hmmm
Out of this whole case…her dad at the end had some tears fall. That's so sad. 😢 RIP
I don't know why but I feel she killed her self..the pets where killed first so they won't feel pain only the owner would do that i dont think a cold blooded killer would bother looking and killing all her pets probably 1 but not all, she then set the house on fire before killing herself..Maybe the coroner made a mistake ,or if he was having an affair( it was alleged )it might the the mistress ,but why would she bother with the pets.on the other hand i think he would tell the truth about his affair coz I belive if he was willing to forget family ties with his brother I don't think he would protect the identity of his mistress..I honestly think she killed herself ..let's hope I'll something comes up and her case be solved before he father dies ,he looks broken and really wants closer
HE WAS MARRIED WHEN HE MET. HER !!! IF THEY CHEAT WITH YOU ….THEY WILL CHEAT ON YOU‼️
This is so horrible, but sadly, it seems that she was paranoid: A gun in every nook and cranny, fears of brother-in-law, step son, man at the end of the drive?
And injuries with strange explanations? Maybe looking for attention? Because I don't go around telling people about every pain or injury I have. Something seems off.
And it had to be someone who knew how to start a fire intense enough to destroy everything. That's not typical. Surely they can surmise the cause of the fire?
Did anyone look to his ex-spouse. He did leave her for Nanette and apparently at one point had an 'issue' with their child (Nanette's step child)…some people hold grudges for a long time. A woman scorned and all that. Maybe she looked up how to start a fire or remembers what her ex used to tell her about how fires burned? Just sayin…Hope they looked into her.
Seems Nan was scared of everybody…….it was like she sensed her death.
What if he did or knew who did it? What is he might have killed her before going to work? Maybe set up a timed fire to go off? to shoot the pets as well!! How cruel is that! Spousal abuse? maybe she wanted a divorce? did not want to share money?
She was having the affair with her husband while he was married. She picked a cheater while cheating with him.
Lol her bestie hated ALL these people! She’s pointed the finger at everyone but the husbands mother.
Her dad 💔😭😭😭
Omg they lived about 15 minutes from my house! 😱
I think her husband did it!
I just don't trust her husband. He was cheating, she was always injured, she was also scared and suspicious of people, seeing a knife and cigarette butt in her home, the fire being very professionally set, the husband being the one to respond, remaining calm until he c was told his wife didn't make it. Idk, it's all too coincidental.

Her poor family, especially her dad. RIP lovely lady.
Her friend Lori really likes to point the finger 🤔
How crazy would this all be if the autopsy was wrong and it was self inflicted? Maybe she had a substance abuse issue
Awe her father is so heart broken this story is so sad
That husband needs a forensic psychologist to analyze his guilty facial gestures. He's guilty in one way or another
nothing best can come out from illicit affairs.
They didn't go into the pets being killed…that to me seems a big thing.. by all accounts, she adored her fur babies why would the killer hurt the animals unless the killer was aware how very much she loved her babies.
I hope her father finds peace in his heart.
Husband did it. I don't care if he passed a lie detector test …he did it.
So over there cheaters!!! Ughhhh
I cried, the dad is so heartbroken!
The friend needs to mind her business. She's pointing fingers at the chief's whole family. Maybe SHE did it, lets look into her whereabouts.
You lose them, how you get them. Don’t be mad when you know he’s a serial cheater. Nanette didn’t deserve to be killed at all and she could have done better than his dumpy ass. As far as her death, Occam’s razor…husband hired someone!
Police place too much emphasis on polygraph tests. There have been several serial killers pass one!!
Her husband..I dont believe him.
Maybe the husband girlfriend from the firehouse.
Murder for hire. The list is endless on who paid for hit. Bitter step kids, in laws, side chicks, who knows. I would check an unemployed fireman that got kicked off force but still knew chief.
He father seems so sweet
Yep, definitely the husband. How cliche that a firefighter killed his own wife and tried to cover it up with a fire of all things. This dude did it.
I feel like the husband did it…. Reason being? Whoever it was, killed the pets as well. That tells me it was personal.
Which sickos would shoot her beloved pets well??
Pets were also killed? It was very personal then. Someone knew she loved them and wanted her to suffer before dying.
It’s extremely obvious to me that the husband did it! Why would someone kill all the animals too?? Only reason for that is so they don’t bark when the fire was being set. Evidence was burned with the fire. A fire chief knows how to burn evidence. Trust me, they know he did it but are looking for that one piece of evidence. He was cleared FOR NOW…You can tell the husband was lying, just watching him speak. They will get him..and by the way, they forced his retirement from the dept for TWO inappropriate relationships with coworkers and because he was stealing air conditioning units from the fire trucks. He’s a cheater, thief and I believe a murderer too!!
It's always about sex or $$$. ALWAYS.
