A 53-year-old Indiana man, Stephen Gower, is accused of murdering his wife, Christina. Allegedly, Gower claimed initially that she had died by suicide, but later admitted to a confrontation stemming from finding out that his wife had messaged other men, according to him.

According to a probable cause affidavit obtained by Law & Crime, the incident occurred on August 4. The Charlestown Police Department and the Clark County Sheriff’s Office responded to a Charlestown New Market Road after a Gower called 911.

Allegedly, Gower claimed that his wife, Christina, had shot herself in the head. Upon arrival, however, Gower made several troubling statements, such as “take me to jail,” and “Shoot me” to responding officers, as per the affidavit.
