Sahel Kazem in happier times with
Escalade she and Steve McNair bought.
On Thursday, July 2 Officer Shawn Taylor pulled over the Cadillac Escalade owned by Sahel Kazemi and Steve McNair. A police recording of that incident taken from Taylor's cruiser shows that Kazemi was probably not intoxicated and McNair was very drunk although not driving.
Still, the superstar McNair was allowed to walk away while Kazemi was arrested. Three days later both of them were found shot dead in his condo, and that same Nashville Police Department has ruled that incident a murder-suicide. It's about as much a murder-suicide as is the DUI arrest of Kazemi is anything other than a rogue cop looking to make more DUI arrests at the expense of a 20 year-old young woman who got involved with the wrong guy.
After you check out the newscast outlining the investigation of the DUI arrest, watch the DUI video and notice that two men in shorts and T-shirts were in the Escalade that Officer Taylor left behind when he arrested Kazemi. Who was the second man? More important, who murdered Steve McNair and Sahel Kazemi, and when will the Nashville police fully investigate the incident?
Like most people, I believed that the Steve McNair incident was a closed murder-suicide case. Then, I received an email from Sahel Kazemi's sister Soheyla, who was clearly upset about the entire incident. Her message contained a forwarded email from someone claiming to be a police officer, and the trail of facts paints a very different picture. It alleges that a third person murdered both McNair and Kazemi and, thus far, remains free.
The following is an excerpt from that lengthy email:
Dear Soheyla,
There are several things that I would like to bring to light about your sister's case and also ask a few questions to dispute what police are saying.McNair was shot 4 times. T he police are saying the first shot was to the right temple, then twice in the chest finally in the left temple before shooting herself. For someone that has never fired a gun before or has any history of violence like your sister, it would be unlikely that after seeing the effects of the first shot, that she could have fired three more times.
Blood splatter according to reports were on the wall on McNair's left side but not his right. Why was there not any blood splatter over his right side from the gunshot to the right side of his head?
It has been concluded that McNair was asleep at the time of the first shot but he was in an upright seated position. Although it is possible, it is extremely rare that someone sleeps in an upright seated position. More importantly, research by law enforcement and independent individuals has shown that the mass majority of murder-suicides are carried out by males not females.
One thing that disturbs me is the fact that there were two shots on each side of McNair's head and two to the chest. That would mean that the shooter did a lot of moving around in order to place the shots where they landed. That is usually not the case in shootings.
Also usually a gunshot to the head is a sign of execution not a sadden girlfriend. Plus the fact that McNair was shot twice in the head and twice in the chest is more a result of anger, revenge, payback or something like that.
This seems very plausible to me. At least, it appears to be an unsolved case worthy of further investigation and probably scrutiny by an organization other than the Nashville Police Department.
May we find the truth and integrity in this crime and in every aspect of our lives.

This is almost unimaginable. It needs to be investigated.
Part 1
I can't help but feel like this article is an example of irresponsible reporting. It is suggesting that the Nashville police department improperly carried out the McNair shooting investigation and might have even been involved in some sort of conspiracy to cover up the true facts of the case and potentially allow the real perpetrator of the crime to go free. These conclusions by the author of this article are entirely based on an email communication with the sister of the person believed responsible for killing McNair (and herself). Like a lot of people, I am deeply saddened by the death of McNair, but also by the death of Kazemi. I wish that they both were still with us. Clearly both families of the victims would like to find closure for the terrible events that occurred and it's safe to assume that Kazemi's family would very much like to clear Sahel's name and preserve her memory by presenting an alternate explanation.
Part 2
The letter above doesn't appear to be written by a police officer or anyone with inside information on the crime scene. The letter talks about information that has been made public and poses questions that we all have. Why would someone with no history of violence who seemed so happy commit this crime? I wish there was always a logical explanation when things like this happen. It would bring me great comfort. Unfortunately, relationships and reasons that drive people to kill are not always so cut and dry. The majority of murder/suicides may be committed by males, but there are always exceptions.
I too would like to see further investigation by an outside party if evidence shows that to be necessary. However, we've already been given an explanation for the crime and until there is definitive proof to the contrary, I hope that there will be "truth and integrity" in the reporting of this tragedy as well.
Does not change the fact this filthy guy did not deserve this... must have been painful for all in this ordeal.
So the cops convince the whore to buy the gun herself? I love it how people think they're detectives when they get high...hey buddy can I have what you're smoking on?
one more thing... how can a married man have a girlfriend? She was the other women,the hoe,slut,mistress,homewrecker...thats crazy how can people call her his girlfriend,show respect to the man wife and kids!!!!!!!
