writer Ann Rule features a section on the slaying of Matthew
Winkler, a small-town Tennessee minister killed by his wife, Mary.
The killing in 2006 and Mary Winkler's trial this year in Selmer
drew widespread media attention. She was convicted of voluntary
manslaughter.
Rule's 480-page book, "Smoke, Mirrors & Murder,"
focuses on a series of seemingly unlikely killings, and Matthew Winkler'sslaying is one of them.
Winkler was shot in the back with a shotgun as he lay in bed.
Mary Winkler told her trial jury her husband physically and
emotionally abused her.
The book, published by Simon & Schuster/Pocket Books, went on
sale this week.

I truly hope that this women gets not publicity off of this book. She should not get any kind of monetary gifts either. It was wrong of her to kill her husband, if he was physically and emotionally abusive, she should have left him and took her children with her. She may not have had to do hard time here on Earth the way she should have, but one day she will have to answer for her crime with God, and she may just get a worse punishment then what she got here on Earth.
