"Bloody" Mary Winkler Case Still A Mystery

Since her March arrest for the murder of her husband, the minister Matthew Winkler, not much has been heard regarding the motive that drove "Bloody" Mary Winkler to commit this heinous crime. Law enforcement has been mum on discussing a motive and there have been two separate reports which can be read here: Winkler might use mental state... and here: Winkler shooting may have been accident...

The case has been turned over to the grand jury which isn't scheduled to meet again until June which will give the defense team ample time to concoct an excuse for their defendant. Obviously we can tell by the above articles that "Bloody" Mary is either going to be portrayed as a helpless victim of mental illness who can't be held responsible for this crime or we are going to be duped into believing that somehow she came to be in possession of a firearm that just accidentally discharged and killed her husband.

Both scenarios are pretty far fetched in my opinion but I must concede that either situation is within the realm of possibility if not probability. The fact that nobody wants to discuss a possible motive leads me to believe that "Bloody" Mary Winkler was in full possession of her faculties and this was a premeditated crime. Time will tell.
