something an email that would happen every night almost every night jane says she was in michael's room when she heard dave raging in the hallway and got up to try and calm him he just started just swearing at me and i kept telling him i was sorry and he started to come down towards michael's room and

And I saw the gun in his hand.

She says she focused on diverting Dave away from Michael and drawing him out of the house.
