The owner of the blog "How to Kill Your Husband" is on trial for killing her husband with two bullets

In 2011, Nancy Brophy wrote a blog called How to Kill Your Husband, which became popular, but as in movies and fantasy novels, Brophy found herself on trial for murder... her husband's murder.

Although she claims that guns are not the best way to kill anyone because they are "loud and loud", in the end, she used a gun to shoot her husband twice in the chest.

Brophy, 71, justified her act by saying it was “for writing.

It wasn't to kill my husband.” The woman used a special gun called a ghost gun, which is a type of gun that is difficult to track in many ways and makes as noisy as a regular firearm. Prosecutors allege that Brophy shot her husband twice in the chest with this homemade gun and that she She had "a huge, well-thought-out plan to make sure she wouldn't be the suspect."

According to Vice.

The blogger's trial began this week, after several delays due to the Corona epidemic, and the details that were leaked during her testimony were incredibly strange, as reported by local media.

The most interesting element in the case emerged from Brophy's blog in 2011 entitled "How to Kill Your Husband", although the judge neglected it as evidence because of the time between the murder.

Brophy begins her blog by saying, "As a romantic suspense writer, I spend a lot of time thinking about murder, and therefore police procedures."

It lists many motives such as falling in love with another person, getting revenge on a cheating spouse, financial reasons (more on that later), and dealing with the abuser.

Brophy also lists ways to get rid of the husband, including: shotguns that she says are "very loud and noisy."

very bloody knives, which require a lot of upper body strength;

The poison that she seems to endorse.

Her husband, Daniel Brophy, was killed in June 2018 in the kitchen of the culinary establishment where he worked.

He was 63 years old at the time.

The couple have lived together since the early 1990s and have been married for more than 25 years.

After his death, Nancy Brophy immediately began amassing a huge amount of multiple life insurance policies, totaling more than $1.4 million.

Although the couple was in the midst of some financial hardship, they continued to pay more than $1,000 for life insurance each month.

Nancy Brophy was charged with second-degree murder three months later and faces life in prison.

The police testified at the trial that when they first informed Nancy Brophy about her murdered husband, they did not sympathize with her reaction, and they also discovered contradictions between the excuses for her absence and the place where the truth was at the time of the crime, which she justified by a “memory gap.”

It later emerged that the wife owned a set of different weapons, all of which were handed over to the police, and also purchased equipment that apparently allows the manufacture of primitive weapons.

"She bought the parts to make an untraceable weapon for research in an upcoming book about a woman slowly making a weapon to kill her partner," the author admitted.

Nancy Brophy's internet history shows that she searched the internet for something similar, just days before her husband was murdered.

On top of all this, four days after her husband's murder, Nancy Brophy went to an officer and asked him to provide her with a letter that she was not the suspect.

It is a piece of paper she needed to collect a premium because, as I heard her say in a recording played in court, "they don't want to pay if it turns out that I secretly went to culinary school and shot my husband."

Nancy Brophy's case took another turn for the worse when her cellmate took the stage on Thursday and said that during their conversations, the romantic novelist "slid" and said "I" when speaking, explaining how her husband was murdered.

During her interrogation, Nancy Brophy praised her husband and cried when she spoke of his death.

Relatives also testified to the strength of the two's relationship.

One of her nieces even said they made her believe that "marriage might not be a bad idea".

 The trajectory of this story is coming to an end as the trial begins, as it is expected to conclude early next week and verdict.

The post does not mention how the blog ended and whether the heroine of her novel got away with it or not.
