On Wednesday, Norfolk police arrested Corey Boone Purvis, 33, and charged her with the murder of her husband, John Purvis, 33.

She was taken into custody in her home, the scene of the homicide. Police say the couple had been arguing prior to the shooting.

In a related story, Mozella Jones, a security guard at the National Gallery of Art, was found guilty Tuesday of second-degree murder in the death of her husband, Kerry Jackson.

She claimed that she shot her husband in self-defense on Feb. 1, 2009.

The shooting took place following an argument, after a neighbor called Jones at work to inform her that her toddler son had been wandering the neighborhood, while her husband was supposed to be watching him.

Jones’ sentencing hearing will be held on May 21.
