Sahel Kazemi Woman Shot Dead with Steve McNair (Photos)
The woman found dead with former Titans Quarterback, Steve McNair, has been identified - her name is Sahel Kazemin and the two have reportedly been having an affair for at least five months, according to the Tennessean.
McNair was found on the sofa with several gunshot wounds, including one to the head, while Sahel was on the floor near him with a single gunshot wound to head. A gun was also found near her body at a Second Avenue condominium that he rented on Saturday (July 4). As we first reported, it seems to be a murder/suicide but police is still waiting for the autopsy results to confirm it.
McNair was married to Mechelle McNair, the mother of three of his four children, who was first believed to be the female victim, was devastated when she heard the news.
The former quarterback’s family released the following statement: “The families of Steve McNair in Mississippi and Tennessee appreciate the concern, thoughts and prayers during this difficult time of our loss of a husband, father and son. The family requests everyone would allow them time to mourn. The McNair family appreciates and continues to request your prayers at this time.”
Sahel, a 20 year-old woman who worked at an Opry Mills restaurant, had been arrested and charged with DUI just two days ago (July 2). The vehicle she drove was a 2007 black Cadillac Escalade, which was in both her and McNair’s names. Police have confirmed McNair was, in fact, in the car when it happened but they allowed him to take a cab home. McNair later bailed Sahel out of jail.
