Celebrity gossip site TMZ has four photos of Steve McNair and Sahel “Jenny” Kazemi apparently having a good time para-sailing. Meanwhile Mrs. McNair claims she didn’t know about the affair.
As far as the cops from Metro Nashville homicide are concerned the case is closed. They’ve ruled the deaths as murder suicide despite the many inconsistencies.

It’s not really surprising that the Metro Nashville Police Department has decided that Sahel Kazemi killed Steve McNair in the pro-quarterback’s condo last week. Supposedly Kazemi and McNair were alone when the shooting happened, McNair was shot two times in the chest, and 1 time in the head from over 3 feet away, then one final shot to his temple for the coup de grace. According to Metro PD, Kazemi then shot herself in the temple, and collapsed on the gun.
But does this even make sense? 
According to Kazemi’s nephew she didn’t own a gun. She told the nephew that McNair “has enough guns” if she needed one for protection. But according to Metro PD she bought a gun from “a guy” on July 2nd, the same day she got a DUI in Nashville, with McNair in the car.

Tragedy mars the first day of the Olympics in Beijing when the father of Olympian Elisabeth “Wiz” Bachman was brutally slain, and her mother seriously injured, by a “deranged Chinese man” wielding a knife.
Todd and Barbara Bachman of Lakeville, Minn. — parents of 2004 volleyball Olympian Elisabeth “Wiz” Bachman and in-laws of U.S. men’s volleyball coach Hugh McCutcheon — were attacked by a Chinese man while visiting the 13th-century Drum Tower.
The U.S. Olympic Committee confirmed Bachman died from knife wounds and that Barbara Bachman suffered life-threatening injuries. She and their Chinese tour guide, who was also injured in the attack, were being treated in a Beijing hospital.

A young man is fatally stabbed, and reportedly beheaded, on a Greyhound bus in Manitoba, Canada. The mounties have taken a 40 year old man, believed to be from Manitoba, into custody in the slaying of a young man described to be in his teens to early 20s, on the bus.
Garnet Caton, who was sitting in the seat in front of the victim, said he saw the attacker stab his seatmate, a young man sleeping with his headphones on.
Caton said he heard a “blood-curdling scream” and turned around to see the attacker holding a large “Rambo” hunting knife above the victim, “continually stabbing him in the chest area.”
“He must have stabbed him 50 times or 60 times,” said Caton.
“Like, just everywhere, arms, legs, neck, chest, guts, wherever he could swing it, he got it,” said Olmstead.
As panicked passengers fled the bus, “the attacker was over top of the victim … continually cutting him. I think the victim was gone at that point,” Caton said. – Source
But, if it’s possible it get’s more gruesome from here, when the assailant allegedly beheads the victim. Here’s Caton’s recounting of the incident to the CBC.
Caton, the driver and a trucker who had stopped at the scene later boarded the vehicle to see if the victim was still alive.
“When we came back on the bus, it was visible at the end of the bus he was cutting the guy’s head off and pretty much gutting him up,” said Caton.
The attacker ran at them, Caton said, and they ran out of the bus, holding the door shut as he tried to slash at the trio.
When the attacker tried to drive the bus away, the driver disabled the vehicle, Caton said.
“While we were watching the door, he calmly walks up to the front with the head in his hand and the knife and just calmly stares at us and drops the head right in front of us,” said Caton. CBC
The RCMP have not confirmed the beheading, according to the CBC. Caton’s account however says the assailant “taunted” the Mounties with the head of the victim during the several hour standoff he had with police, before being subdued while trying to escape via a bus window.
