Killed By Wife 15 Minutes After Leaving Jail

By



A Tennessee man was shot and killed by his wife less than 15 minutes after he was released from jail.
Robert Vann Marshall, 34, allegedly broke an order of protection Saturday barring him from going anywhere near his wife. Earlier that day, he was thrown in the slammer and given the order because he allegedly threatened to kill his wife and children, WBIR reported.

At 1:27 p.m., he was released from jail. At 1:38 p.m., officers received a call from Marshall's wife at their McMinn County home, during which she claimed her husband was forcing his way inside the home. Police said he was irate, suicidal and possibly armed.
"His wife called 911 and was telling our dispatchers that he was trying to break into the residence," McMinn County Sheriff Joe Guy told WRCB. "She retreated into the back bedroom, and at some point fired a shot and he was killed."

As police descended on the home, Marshall's wife told dispatchers that she had shot him. The Huffington Post is withholding the woman's name because she is a possible domestic violence victim.
The woman is currently not facing charges because Guy believes she acted out of self defense. The district attorney will investigate to determine whether the case should go in front of a grand jury.
Guy told reporters that an order of protection is "just a piece of paper," but said it's rare that the process ends in more violence.

Tips for a Happy Marriage

By
Marriage Boundaries You probably got married as friends, but then found yourselves running into difficulty because you each had your own way of living and doing. You came from one family, and your partner came from another family, and those families were different. Your job as a couple is to create some boundaries and rules that will guide you in your marriage. But if you’ve never created any rules before, and you or your partner don’t like rules and boundaries, it won’t be an easy task. Who is the Leader? You are equal partners making decisions in marriage. Responsibilities must be divided up. You need policies, procedures, and rules in order to work cooperatively as well as independently. You will enjoy working together as you know each other better and gain confidence in each other’s decision-making ability. Developing faith and trust takes many months. Forging a new way of life from your different backgrounds takes time and patience. Remember, you are equa...

Can Nightmares Cause Death? Spirit Possession? Mental Illness?

By
A lot of the research on nightmares suggests these events test the strength of one’s mind. If the mind is not strong, nightmares can take hold with greater force and the torment can extend beyond one’s dreams. Dr. Patrick McNamara of the Boston University School of Medicine looks at nightmares in a modern clinical context that also takes into account the history of dream phenomena in many cultures. He connects nightmares with a world of malevolent spirits. Spirit Possession Some people who experience frequent nightmares, both today and throughout history, also show signs in waking life of mental illness and even what may be seen as spirit possession. Dr. McNamara seems unabashed in speaking about spirit possession. “Nightmares very often involve supernatural characters that attack or target the dreamer in some way. I mean monsters, creatures, demons, spirits, unusual animals, and the like,” Dr. McNamara said in an interview with Boston University’s alumni publicat...
