Margaret Maggie Flath was 27 when she was killed in her Wadena, Minnesota apartment on November 7, 2016. A home health aide and mother of three, she was described as caring and devoted to her family. The killing occurred during a domestic incident: her husband, Antonio St. Marie, had been released from jail that day on a domestic assault charge.

Despite a no-contact order, he went to the shared apartment and held Maggie, their young child, and her brother James Flath Jr. at gunpoint. James escaped with the child and alerted authorities. After a standoff, Maggie was found in the apartment with a fatal gunshot wound; St. Marie fled but crashed his vehicle in what was reported as an attempted suicide and was later arrested.

What details about the events inside the apartment might help explain how the hostage situation escalated to murder — and did anyone witness the moments before the shooting?
