A woman with blond hair sat at a computer, her blue eyes scanning the comments on the Homicide Report about the killing of Charles "Chip" Burns.
Some came from people who had never met him but had an opinion about the simple entry, posted in August 2010. It described how Chip, who turned 46 on that day, had gotten into an altercation with his wife, Shannon Burns. At some point, investigators said, the 41-year-old armed herself with a gun. Authorities believe that Chip was shot and killed while trying to take the weapon away.
The woman at the computer tensed as she read some of the comments.
