Houston Man Accused of Shooting Pregnant Wife While their 3 Kids Sat Inside

There are no words to describe how absolutely sickening this is. OUTRAGE!!!

A Houston-area man accused of shooting his pregnant wife while their 3 children sat inside the home had some rather appalling words for police Sunday night as they hauled the 37-year-old off to jail. "She had it coming," Michael McDougall reportedly responded after someone asked why he killed his wife. The petroleum engineer from Spring, Texas, is charged with killing his wife, Jennifer McDougall, who was about six months pregnant with a baby girl. The Harris County Sheriff's Office says the 30-year-old mother was shot several times outside her home, and her unborn child also did not survive. According to ABC local news, the other children, ages 2, 4 and 8, were inside the house at the time of the shooting. Officers say their father brought them outside afterwards.

Investigators say witnesses reported hearing gun shots, and a woman screaming Sunday morning. CBS affiliate KHOU reports a neighbor said she could hear Jennifer McDougall screaming for help, "Help me. Help me. What are you doing? Somebody please help me."


What a sick bastard!!! To shoot your pregnant wife... and in front of your other children?! This poor excuse of a human being robbed these poor kids of their mother and a future sibling. Since it's Texas we are confident that this man will end up where he belongs......... in the electric chair!
