A preventable murder
Neenef Odah and Maggie Wardle, sophomores at a Kalamazoo College (a small liberal arts college in Michigan), had been dating on-and-off for a year. According to some of Wardle's friends, Odah wanted a serious relationship, but Wardle was having cold feet. On Oct. 16, students saw Wardle, 19, at a dance with another gentleman-a friend of hers. Odah, 20, saw it too. At 12:15 a.m. on Monday, Oct. 18, Odah confronted his ex-girlfriend in her room, shot her two times with a shotgun and then took his own life.
