"Indiana newlyweds die in apparent murder-suicide" Tribune-Star October 10, 2014
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. — An Indiana couple was found dead in an apparent murder-suicide only hours after they were married, authorities say.
About a dozen friends and relatives gathered for an after-party at the home of George Samson, 54, and Kelly Ecker Samson, 50, following a wedding reception Saturday night at a Terre Haute banquet center, the Vigo County Sheriff’s Department said.
Witnesses told detectives George Samson left without his wife after becoming irritated near the end of the reception, and some guests saw that they were not talking with each other during the after-party. Investigators have not determined what led to the argument, Sheriff Greg Ewing told the Tribune-Star.
Only Kelly Samson’s young son and George Samson’s parents remained at the house when she made the first of four 911 calls within a few minutes starting about 1:20 a.m. Sunday, according to a sheriff’s department report.
Kelly Samson told a dispatcher her husband had threatened to kill her, but gave an address for the house a couple miles east of Terre Haute. During the final call, a dispatcher heard screams and multiple possible gunshots.
