The wife of former NFL quarterback Steve McNair didn't know about Sahel Kamezi before the 20-year-old woman was found lying dead beside the retired football star, said Mike Mu, who's worked with McNair's charity.
McNair was found dead on July 4. He'd been shot four times.
Assistant medical examiner Feng Li confirmed Wednesday gunpowder residue was discovered on the hands of Kamezi. She was found with a single gunshot wound to the head. A gun she had purchased two days earlier was under her body.
Li said the findings fuel the likelihood that McNair's girlfriend shot him and then herself in a murder-suicide, but police not confirmed that.
Further test results on the weapon and toxicologies are still pending. Nashville police will hold a press conference Wednesday afternoon.
Mu, who's receiving media inquiries for Thursday's memorial service, said Mechelle McNair "didn't know who this girl is."
Mechelle McNair hasn't spoken publicly since the shooting. Those close to her, however, have said she's quite upset and distraught.
A funeral service for McNair will be held Saturday in Mississippi.
The close friend who reported McNair's death to 911 spoke to a Tennessee newspaper and lashed out at those making negative comments about his former teammate.
Robert Gaddy said the McNairs' Nashville home was for sale because the family was intending to move.
"People need to quit talking about what they don't know. Mac never said anything to me about he was going to get a divorce, and ever since this has all happened everybody is trying to paint a certain picture and they need to talk about what they know," Gaddy told the newspaper.
On Wednesday, the four-time Pro Bowl quarterback was being recognized at the stadium where he played much of his career.
The Tennessee Titans opened LP Field for fans to watch video highlights of McNair's 13-year NFL career. Photos of McNair were also on display and fans could write messages to the family in a book.
Mechelle McNair met her husband when they were university students. She later studied nursing in Nashville while he played for the Titans. The pair married in 1997 and had two children. Steve McNair has two other children.
