Days prior to this horrific event  Stephen's wife Katie had ended their brief marriage by way of a phone call and Stephen, it seemed had become so distraught he did the unthinkable. We've seen this sort

of nightmarish scenario before, haven't we? "If I can't have you, no one can". This case however, is a bit different.
