The photos show Ignagni out with friends, laughing and smoking cigarettes.

Nashville police named Ignagni in a case summary, released Monday, Oct. 19, 2009, regarding the murder of NFL star McNair, who they believe was killed by his lover Sahel Kazemi, who then turned the gun on herself.

The report states that based on police interviews with Ignagni and Kazemi's former roommate, Emily Andrews, Kazemi knew that McNair was involved with another woman.

Ignagni also told police that a car matching the description of Kazemi's black Escalade followed her home and that a woman was inside.

According to her MySpace page, Ignagni is 25-years-old. Her LinkedIn page, which has now been removed, lists her as an editor at a start-up magazine about Nashville night-life, "61Five," according to USA Today.

What are you doing? Making an uninformed opinion? Man, read this stuff. If you have a question as to the validity of the questions being raised, then please state it.

Other wise what your saying... Its ok to murder 2 people and get away with it. I hope Karma dosnt come into your life in a regretable way that clearifies the issues at hand.

Unless there is text messages in McNairs last 2 months worth of texting, in which is can be shown he texted this "Other Woman", phone calls or pictures of him with this woman. Then with the way this case has been, i would have to doubt that McNair ever even knew the woman.

None of this case rings true. This other woman aspect came out really fast in the investigation. They wanted to add the Jealousy to the mix so as to make the "Murder/Suicide" thoery more plausible.

Now that the Cell/text/phone records have already been given to the courts, they wont be able to change them when the Freedom of Information Act gets them released. So if her Number dosnt appear on his phone... Which i happen to think it wont, then it fits in this case very nicely. Since most of this is built on statements with NO proof to support what the "authorities" Claim.
