When Atlanta attorney Claud “Tex” McIver appeared at the Atlanta Police Department to talk about how he had fatally shot his wife, he brought two attorneys and his massage therapist with him, a homicide detective testified Friday.

Darrin Smith, the lead homicide detective who investigated Diane McIver’s shooting death, said he began trying to interview McIver early on Sept. 26, 2016—just hours after Diane McIver died at Emory University Hospital.
