Belcher’s mother, Cheryl Shepherd, gave details of the murder, according to the report. She said she had moved in with the couple two weeks before their deaths because they were having “relationship problems due to financial issues associated with Perkins’ spending habits.” Shepherd also said that the argument that preceded Perkins’ killing “was in regard to one or both of them going out as in to a club or partying.”

Jovan Belcher shot Kasandra 5 times according to the report.

Police said in the report that they found a bullet hole in the floor under Perkins’ body that went through to the basement, possibly indicating that the victim was on the floor when she was shot. Shepherd said, according to police, that she heard a thump before the gunshots.

Police found 10 apparent gunshot wounds in the front of Perkins body and five on her back. According to the report, the medical examiner found four bullets remaining in her body.

Such a sad case. It seems that the Chiefs and Belcher’s mother were doing everything they could to try to help the couple work through their issues. Shooting someone 15 times is just…
