Bizarre Scenario

3 years ago, a man was murdered in Hong Kong, by his wife. It was known at the time as the Milkshake Murder (one of her kids gave him a milkshake with sedatives in it, so she could bludgeon him to death).

The murdered man's brother Andrew and his wife, Hayley, lived in New York. Hayley initiated divorce proceedings against her husband in 2005. Andrew was due to plead guilty this week to charges of fraud concerning tens of millions of dollars, and was certain to go to jail for several years.

On Tuesday, Andrew was found in the basement of his house with his hands and feet bound. He'd been shot in the head.

Hayley's explanation of the situation to a relative: "Andrew died."

Call me suspicious, but even if you hated your soon-to-be-ex-husband, wouldn't you have a little glimmer of sympathy/shock/anger that he'd been brutally murdered?

But how bizarre if both brothers turn out to have been murdered by their wives...
