Kimberly Williams says she was standing behind her husband in their bedroom when she heard the gun go off.
The case was originally reported as a suicide, but investigators found evidence leading them to rule it a homicide.
The district attorney says Williams’ motive was her husband’s will, worth nearly $1 million.
Williams fled to North Carolina and is now being held in county jail there awaiting extradition to Pennsylvania.
