GARDEN CITY, N.Y. — Maureen Steeves started what seemed like a normal day in suburbia cooking and doing laundry while her estranged husband ran errands and took their two teenage sons to a high school football game.
This undated file photo provided by the Suffolk County, N.Y., Police Department shows David Steeves, who is charged with second-degree murder after allegedly putting cyanide in his estranged wife's coffee. Authorities say Steeves is gay and didn't want to see Maureen Steeves dating anyone else now that their marriage had fallen apart. Prosecutors have also suggested the instructions for how to kill his wife may have come from an electronic copy of "The Mujahideen Poisons Handbook," which was found on the suspect's laptop computer.
