Stephanie Byrd was a 44-year-old registered nurse from Pittsburgh who was shot to death on the afternoon of Friday, May 10, 2013. She had been estranged from her husband, Bruce Anthony Byrd, 46, and had obtained a restraining order after enduring verbal abuse and threats. The order was later modified to allow her to collect belongings from his mother’s home in the Lawrenceville neighborhood under the understanding he would not be present.

Stephanie arrived at the Carlton Street residence with a friend waiting in the car. After she went inside, she appeared at a window pounding for help; Bruce Byrd was waiting and attacked her, firing roughly 30 to 33 shots and emptying at least three magazines. Neighbors heard gunfire and someone shouting that Stephanie was being killed. Police found both victims on the living room floor; Bruce’s body was on top of Stephanie’s, and he had died by a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The killings ended a long history of domestic turmoil between the couple. Did anyone see activity around the Carlton Street house that afternoon or have information about interactions between the Byrds in the weeks before May 10, 2013?
