Madisonville police are investigating a murder-suicide from Thursday of last week.
A news release says a family friend went to an Echo Lane home to check on the residents about 10:30 p.m. Thursday and found Donald and Jayne Hundley dead from gunshot wounds to the head.
Investigation determined Donald shot his wife twice with a .38 caliber revolver at about 10 a.m. that morning and then turned the gun on himself.
Police say Donald killed his wife after she discovered financial problems.
Jayne Hundley was the mother and mother-in-law of local attorneys Olivia and Chip Adams.
