Pact Or Murder/Suicide? Cops Unsure


"JANESVILLE, WI — A Janesville couple found dead in their home Sunday had a suicide pact, police said.

"The married couple in their mid-40s were found dead at about 4 p.m. in the basement of their home in the 3500 block of Stuart Street, Deputy Chief Dan Davis said.

"Notes, conversations with family and posts on Facebook indicated the couple committed suicide together, Davis said.

"The couple had health and financial problems, he said, and a gun was found at the scene.

"The deaths remain under investigation, Davis said, and it was unknown whether the pact was a murder-suicide or double suicide.

"Autopsies have not been performed on the bodies, he said.

"The couple were found after family members asked police to check on the them.

"An investigator with the Rock County Coroner’s Office pronounced the two dead shortly after police responded."

  1. Is linked to the suicide of a mentally unstable person. Murder that is suicidal. Suicide bombing or driving a car with one or more passengers. Crime is followed by suicide as a form of self-punishment.
