War Bride Held After Killing of Estranged Mate

The baby 16 months old Frank Jr was present. Waters said I shot him because I was afraid he might hurt the baby. Police say jealousy and plans to resign prompted the shooting at their Las Vegas home where Waters worked as a nurse. Waters had contested a divorce and the suit was reduced to separate maintenance with 100 monthly support for mother and child.
