**Warning, this case discusses the topic of suicide.**
Brett and Vashti Seacat seemed like a perfect couple, but on April 30, 2011, the Seacat home went up in flames. Brett escaped with their two young sons, but Vashti was found dead in the master bedroom. During the investigation, it was discovered that Vashti had actually been shot, and her husband said she had killed herself. However, the investigation was leading in another direction.
Did Vashti commit suicide or did Brett kill her?
