Ex-MLB player Darryl Hamilton dies in apparent murder-suicide: Texas police

[jjgold]

HOUSTON (Reuters) - Former Major League outfielder and baseball broadcast analyst Darryl Hamilton has been killed in an apparent murder-suicide in suburban Houston, police in Pearland said on Monday.
Pearland police said they found the bodies of Hamilton, 50, and Monica Jordan, 44, at a home. The couple's 14-month-old infant was found unharmed at the scene and was taken into the care of Texas Child Protective Services.
Hamilton’s body was found near the entry of the home and Jordan’s body was found in another area of the home. She apparently died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, police said.
"At this point it does not appear that there was any kind of struggle. The incident occurred just inside the front door," police Lieutenant Onesimo Lopez told reporters at the scene.
Hamilton played 13 seasons as a Major League outfielder for the Milwaukee Brewers, Texas Rangers, San Francisco Giants, Colorado Rockies and New York Mets before becoming an on-air analyst for the MLB Network.
Hamilton batted .291 with 1,333 hits, 707 runs scored and 454 RBI in his career, according to MLB.com.

Medical examiner: First shotgun blast left Lane unconscious



By Associated Press



CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- A tearful Deidra Lane left the courtroom twice Wednesday, avoiding graphic testimony about her shooting of her late husband, NFL running back Fred Lane.
Prosecutors concluded their case in the sentencing hearing for Deidra Lane, 28, who pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter in August.
Lawyers for Lane, who faces a sentence of up to eight years, presented their first witness, an obstetrician who said Lane told her three weeks before the shooting that she had been physically and verbally abused by her husband.
Deidra Lane spent most of the day slumped in her chair at the defense table, eyes cast downward and frequently crying. She first left the courtroom during morning testimony by Mecklenburg County's medical examiner, Dr. Michael Sullivan, about his autopsy of Fred Lane.
Lane left again just before a police department firearms expert showed the heavily bloodstained yellow shirt Fred Lane was wearing when he was killed on July 6, 2000.
In both cases, Superior Court Judge Timothy Patti allowed Lane to leave after reminding her that she was waiving her constitutional right to be present.
Both the firearms expert, Bill McBrayer, and Sullivan testified that they concluded Fred Lane was shot from distances of 8 feet or less.
Sullivan said that the first shot fired at Fred Lane, which struck him in the chest and ripped apart his heart, "would cause a loss of consciousness very rapidly, within seconds, certainly less than a minute."
Deidra Lane told police investigators her husband was still moving after she fired the first shot and that she fired a second time because she "(thought) he was going to get up and come back at me."
The prosecution concluded its case by showing Patti photographs of the crime scene and a videotaped re-enactment of the shooting as it was described by Deidra Lane to police investigators.
The tape, made two months after the shooting, featured police detectives playing the roles of Fred and Deidra Lane.
Among other things, the tape showed Deidra Lane would have had to be standing almost directly over her husband's prone body to have fired the second shot from 3 feet away, as Sullivan concluded. That could raise doubt about her claim that Fred Lane still threatened her when she shot him in the back of the head.
Fred Lane, who played for the Carolina Panthers and was traded to Indianapolis shortly before his death, was shot as he entered his south Charlotte home. His body was found face down in a pool of blood in the entryway.
Prosecutors believe Deidra Lane, who had given birth to a daughter one week earlier, shot Fred Lane as he walked through the door, then walked through a pool of his blood to shoot him a second time.
Defense lawyers say Fred Lane entered the house in a rage and that Deidra Lane killed him in self-defense.
Dr. Devon Delaney, who was Deidra Lane's obstetrician, testified that Lane told her at a June 14, 2000, office visit that Fred Lane had physically and verbally abused her. On June 28, Delaney said, Lane asked to have her pregnancy induced so that she could give birth before Fred Lane returned to Charlotte from an out-of-town trip.
The baby was born the following day.
Defense documents filed in the case have argued that Fred Lane's abuse of his wife grew more frequent and severe in the weeks before his death. Fred Lane is alleged to have pushed Deidra Lane out of a car as he accelerated away and to have grabbed her by the throat, lifted her off the ground and thrown her into a sink.
Under cross-examination, Delaney acknowledged that she never saw bruises or other physical signs of abuse or injury on Lane beyond a cut lip that Lane told her was an accident.
The hearing is expected to last more than a week, unusual for a sentencing. But no evidence was put on before Deidra Lane entered her guilty plea, and the agreement leaves sentencing up to Patti.

Woman Who Murdered Panthers Fred Lane Runs Kids Summer Camp Now


Deidra Lane was found guilty of murdering her husband Carolina Panthers running back Fred Lane back in 2003.
She was released from prison in 2009. My math is a little fuzzy, but six years for a cold blooded murder seems a bit on the light side. I have seen people go to jail for longer periods of time for robbing gas stations. I certainly wouldn’t want a murderer running a day camp my child would be attending, but that is what is going on in North Carolina.

Two convicted murderers are running a summer day camp for children at a Raleigh University.
One of the women was involved in a high profile murder of her husband, a former Carolina Panthers player, and the other was convicted of killing her own child.
The woman who runs the Kiddie Kollege Summer Camp at St. Augustine’s University is Doris Bullock, the former Doris Braswell. Bullock was convicted of second-degree murder in the 1981 death of her infant child.
Her assistant is Deidra Gary, formerly Deidra Lane. In 2000, Gary was convicted of killing her husband, Carolina Panthers running back Fred Lane. She pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter in 2003 and was released from prison in 2009.
the school would only release a statement, saying:
“The safety and well being of children in our on-campus programs are our top priorities. Saint Augustine’s University performs background checks on all employees. Doris Bullock and Deidra Gary serve in administrative roles and provide valuable support. They are exemplary employees and productive members of the community.”

Awesome a husband killer and child killer being allowed to supervise kids.
FYI, the parents aren’t told two felonys are watching their kids, they probably know now though.

[Big Bear]

These women who kill their man are fukked up.


Crazy bitches. I can't believe Diedra is out free after she shot an NFL running back with a shot gun in the back as he was trying to Leave out his front door.

She is a cold blooded killer.

This thread is about Darryl Hamilton. He had a 14 month old baby and two children under 18 from a previous relationship. Look at his Twitter and you'll see some recent nice pictures with his kids. Focus! - Very sad

Dead pull hitter. Not a bad player. Sad story.

What a nut she had to be

Probably the sister of Phil Hartman's wife.

[jjgold]

I bet he was cheating on her

[44 Mag]

I bet he was cheating on her

Didn't know cheating on a spouse was worthy of a "death sentence". Maybe in Saudi Arabia, or Yemen????

[upscope]

~~~

[pavyracer]

Lesson to be learned. If you are going to cheat on your wife don't go back into your house the same night.

[pavyracer]

Didn't know cheating on a spouse was worthy of a "death sentence". Maybe in Saudi Arabia, or Yemen????

It's not a death sentence but the probabilities of dying are increased.

Marriage can be deadly. This thread is depressing, mods saloon

Hamilton could have been possessed by a demon which means shooting him is ok. Not enough info to be sure.
