In Russia, two gay men had a fight over suspicions of treason and stabbed each other to death. As a conclusion, one of them threw himself out of a window
Germany. In a case of extended suicide, a man killed his wife with a contact gunshot to the back of the head from a single-barreled 12-gauge “Baikal” shotgun loaded with a Brenneke shotgun slug. The woman was lying in the bed and her shattered head rested on blood-soaked pillows similar to a sleeping position. Multiple small blood spatter stains, brain particles, and bone fragments were present in the room up to a distance of 5 m. The stains on the rear wall were concentrated in a radial pattern (approx. 160°) which also showed a funnel-shaped soot stain and an oval missile defect.
