NFL quarterback’s murder by his mistress was depicted by a skeleton wearing a blown off Titans helmet and a jersey sporting a number nine as Halloween decorations at King’s Island Amusement Park in Ohio. This display was an obvious reference to the night McNair was found after being murdered by his mistress Sahel Kazemi.
In the display, the McNair figure sits on a couch, assuming the same position in which he was murdered, and the Kazemi figure rests on its lap. At the skeletons’ feet, a gun lies on the ground. The couple are just two of the familiar faces included in the Haunt: A skeleton depicting Heath Ledger is shown surrounded by bottles of pills (Ledger overdosed in January 2008), and a skeleton is dressed like Michael Jackson in pajamas. But it’s McNair’s image alongside his mistress that has the city of Nashville horrified.
The King Island’s website warns that their Halloween Haunt is for mature audiences and includes graphic scenes, suggestive themes, and intense imagery. “No one and nothing is off limits!”
Including an NFL quarterback and his murdering mistress
RIP Steve… Here is some information in the developing story around McNair’s death. From CBC.ca:
Nashville police say a woman found shot to death with former NFL star Steve McNair recently purchased a gun, according to a report in The Tennessean newspaper.
Sahel Kazemi and the former Tennessee Titans quarterback were found dead on Saturday in a condominium owned by McNair.
Kazemi, 20, died Saturday of a single gunshot wound to the head alongside McNair, who had two gunshots to the head and two to the chest. The gun was found under Kazemi’s body.
“We believe the pistol recovered from the apartment was purchased by Kazemi,” police spokesman Don Aaron told The Tennessean.
Aaron said testing to determine if gunshot residue was present on Kazemi’s hands has not yet been completed.
U.S. federal law prohibits anyone under 21 from purchasing a handgun.
After her father was murdered during halftime at one of her games Tierra Rogers questions her love of basketball.
Terray Rogers, an anti-violence activist and a constant and visible presence at Tierra’s basketball games, was shot while smoking a cigarette outside during halftime. Police feel Terray was targetted since his friend was not harmed.
Tierra told a writer from ESPN that she has ” her own inner conflict to deal with, and it had to do with basketball. One option was just flat-out quitting, and her coach at Sacred Heart, Harrigan, says he wouldn’t have blamed her. Terray had been slain 100 yards from the gym, and many times Harrigan imagined Tierra turning in her uniform, imagined her saying, Coach, I don’t know if I can walk through these doors every day, knowing my father was killed across the street.
Maybe it will take weeks, maybe months, maybe years. She already has committed to play collegiately at Cal because when she visited campus alone on parents’ weekend — breaking down in tears — she appreciated the way coach Joanne Boyle comforted her. She just tries to plod forward. She still takes the Muni bus to Guy’s gym.”
Nine months later, the motive behind her father’s murder remains a mystery and the police investigation continues.
