911 Call, Then Murder-Suicide

A Columbus (Ohio) man set in motion plans to murder his girlfriend, torch his house and then hers, and then shoot himself. Police say Edward Offord II, 39, dialed 911 before turning the gun on himself to confess to everything he had already done, spelling out street names, repeating information and sounding completely unemotional about the entire situation. Police say Krista Winger was already dead when Offord talked to a dispatcher, and was calling from a rural Delaware County reservoir. He said he shot Winger at his house, set the residence on fire, then drove to Winger’s house and set it afire. It’s not clear how soon after that call that Offord killed himself.
