LEBANON, Pa. — The husband of the Pennsylvania soccer mom found dead in an apparent-murder suicide was a parole officer and former prison guard.
Autopsies are planned Friday for 31-year-old Meleanie Hain and 33-year-old Scott Hain. They were pronounced dead Wednesday night at their home in Lebanon.
Meleanie Hain made headlines after she attended her daughter's soccer game on Sept. 11, 2008, with a gun in plain view on her hip. A sheriff revoked her gun-carrying permit, but a judge reinstated it.
The Corrections Department says Scott Hain was a state parole officer since August 2008 and previously was a state prison guard.
Police are offering few details on the shooting, including the weapons used.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information

AP's earlier story is below.
LEBANON, Pa. (AP) — A mother of three who gained national notoriety after she openly carried a loaded handgun to her daughter's soccer game was shot dead along with her husband in what appeared to be a murder-suicide.
Meleanie Hain, 31, and Scott Hain 33, were pronounced dead shortly after 8:30 p.m. Wednesday at their 1 1/2-story brick home in Lebanon, a small city about 80 miles west of Philadelphia.
The couple's three children home at the time but weren't hurt, police told the Patriot-News in Harrisburg. They were taken to stay with friends and relatives.
Some neighbors told the Lebanon Daily News they heard or saw the children — a 10-year-old boy and girls aged 2 and 6 — running from the house and screaming "Daddy shot Mommy!" shortly before the 911 emergency center was alerted at 6:20 p.m.
Debbie Mise, who lives nearby, said she heard a strange sound following by the screams of the children.
"I heard something heavy drop or fall, and then right away I heard the kids screaming, but I thought they were playing," Mise said. "It was loud. But it didn't sound like a pop."
Lebanon Police Chief Daniel Wright said Thursday that the case is classified as a "death investigation" involving two adult victims, but that no one outside the home nor any of the children is suspected of killing the couple. Detectives were still at the scene late Thursday morning, he said.
Wright said he did not plan to release any additional information about the case until after Lebanon County Coroner Dr. Jeffrey Yocum conducts autopsies on Friday.
Details about the shootings and what prompted the violence remained unclear Thursday morning.



Sad story but ironic.

I'm failing to see the irony... She carries a gun with a permit and her husband shoots her?

You're failing at reading comprehension as well.

She was killed by the very same weapon she went to court to defend, both literally and figuratively.

Some new sources are reporting she was killed with the gun she was carrying at the soccer games which precipitated her losing her license to carry and then getting it back.

How is any of this ironic?


We do know this will be turned into an anti gun thing though. Those idiots will always find a way to exploit a tragedy. I wonder why we dont see them protesting against cars though. Car wrecks kill more people every year than shootings do.

No I'm sure their better judgment and just cause were in full effect by both parties in this case.

She would have still had the gun at the house regardless of whether she had a carrying permit.

She fought for her legal rights, and then her husband shot her. Wow, the irony is overwhelming.

it is crazy enough that things like this could happen but it always seems to amaze me that things like this could happen with children in the house. My best friends sister was murdered by her live in boyfriend a couple years ago in her home off clarks bridge road in gainesville while both her kids were sitting right there.

Actually I was just mentioning how brilliant natural selection is. If anything, I was criticizing gun control laws. And the fact that she was a gun rights activist is what makes this extremely ironic, in case you haven't gotten it yet. Stricter gun control laws and that woman could still be alive. It wasn't a random murder, it was her own gun.

You're right, I guess shooting your wife and then yourself during a domestic argument when you have kids must be what highly educated, intelligent people do.


I've debated gun rights here on IA before. It's always just a waste of my time because, as shown again in this thread, you COMPLETELY DISREGARD any arguments made by the other side, because you think you are definitely right. So like the last thread, I will just stop posting.

The statistics say you are many, many times more likely to be shot with your own gun than to use it successfully in defense against an intruder.

That statistic is retarded, only if you are not safe with your gun and not comfortable in its operation.

So apparently this gun rights activist (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sETSAENKVY) was not safe with her gun, nor comfortable with it's operation. Or maybe she was a retard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_right).
