Authorities have jailed 39-year-old Suzanne McNulty on pending murder charges, which are expected to be filed today. The Jackson County sheriff says McNulty admits holding a 12-gauge shotgun Thursday night when it went off, striking Berg in the throat. It happened at the home of a friend of McNulty. That friend returned Friday, found the body and called 9-1-1. It’s the county’s first murder since 1997 and the county attorney said -quote- “This is a sad example of the combination of anger, alcohol and guns.”
