I think they were estranged because he wouldn't let her act as his agent after he got drafted, sounds like this lady had some screws loose - the one I really feel for is Drew Brees.

From what I've read about her in previous tidbits she didn't sound like the greatest women. But still too bad to hear that she wasn't doing well and decided to take her life. Oh well, maybe she'll be reincarnated and come back as humpback camel.

Mental illiness and depression are definitely killers. Some people you don't even know are suffering from extreme depression, till after the deed is done. It's a shame because many people are taking the right meds, and living a good life.
