A novelist accused of killing her husband wrote an online essay nearly seven years ago. Nancy Crampton Brophy, 68, was arrested last week and charged with murder. Her arrest comes months after her husband, 63-year-old Daniel Brophy, he was found shot to death. She wrote inside the essay:
Crampton Brophy lists motives for killing a husband (financial, cheating, abuser) and ways to commit the crime (guns, knives, poison, hit man). she wrote, “But the thing I know about murder is that every one of us have it in him/her when pushed far enough.”
