Laurel County murder suspect says he killed his wife to end her pain [View all]

Moments after his wife lay in her bed..with two gunshot wounds...Ernest Chris Chumbley picked up the phone and dialed 911.

“Hello….I just shot my wife,” Chris Chumbley is heard telling the dispatcher in the 911 tapes obtained by WKYT.

“She told me she wanted me to end her pain. All I said,’Jay, all I’ve got is what the doctor gave you. She said 'no, I want you to stop my pain for good,’” said Chumbley.

This is such a sad situation. I can't imagine being in that position. There has got to be a more humane way to deal with terminal illness.
