First look: FL gunman’s wife says he missed on purpose; Coin depicts royal couple’s ugly alter egos

Rebecca Duke, widow of Clay Duke, who held a Florida school board hostage last week, says her husband was an excellent shot and probably missed on purpose because he “didn’t want to hurt anybody.”

Duke says her family was struggling financially, and Clay could no longer afford his medication for bipolar disorder.

Prince William and his betrothed, princess-to-be Kate Middleton, appear on a new 5-pound ‘memento’ coin just released by the Royal Mint:

coin wills and kate

Do you see the likeness? It appears Kate has aged about 10 years and gained 20 pounds, whereas William is experimenting with an “Elvis” hairdo. Fans of the royal couple are not pleased.

Hope everyone’s getting their Christmas shopping done…Tom Tangney and Dave Ross will see you at 9!

Also, don’t miss Tom and Dave in the KIRO holiday video!
