Gun-toting soccer mom is shot dead
A very sad story indeed, but so ironic none the less:
Meleanie Hain, the pistol-carrying Lebanon mom who received national attention for taking a loaded gun to her daughter’s soccer game, was shot to death Wednesday night with her husband in an apparent murder-suicide, police said.
Hain, 31, and her husband, Scott, 33, were pronounced dead by Lebanon County Coroner Dr. Jeffrey Yocum shortly after 8:30 p.m. at their home at Second Avenue and East Grant Street, police said.
The couple’s three children were home at the time and were not injured, and are staying with relatives and friends, police said.
Thankfully the children were not victims of a crime that is becoming all to common. Given the legal fights Hain was in, I wonder if her battle for gun rights wasn’t a contributing factor to her untimely demise.
