Aug. 24 (UPI) — Police say that they’ve found a body believed to be that Karen Solomon, a Massachusetts woman wanted for questioning in the death of her police officer husband.

The discovery comes a few days after police issued an arrest warrant for Solomon. Authorities believe she took her own life, said Chief Paul Saucier of the Worcester Police Department. Police said they found a gun near the body, which was discovered in a wooded area and has not yet been officially identified.

At a press conference Monday, Saucier said the deaths of Karen and Kurt Solomon are believed to be a murder-suicide. Kurt Solomon, an officer in the department, was found dead Tuesday at the couple’s home in Worcester, Mass.

Karen Solomon was a founder of a group that advocates for the mental health of law enforcement officers. Saucier said there was no history of domestic violence between the two.

He also read a statement from the Solomon family, which described the past week as a “nightmare.”

“The compassion, dedication and empathy of all agencies involved have given us light in the face of darkness,” the statement said. “For those in Massachusetts and throughout the world who have offered up prayers and sympathies, they have helped us through every minute of the day. Thank you for your basic human compassion.”

Police found Kurt Solomon’s body early Tuesday after they were called to the couple’s home. They released doorbell camera of Karen Solomon walking down the street minutes after police were called.

Karen Solomon was considered “armed and dangerous” and wanted for assault and battery with a dangerous weapon with serious bodily injury, police said at a press conference Friday. The U.S. Marshals Service, U.S. Homeland Security and other agencies took part in the search.

Karen Solomon was the co-founder of First H.E.L.P, a group that advocates for the mental health of police officers. She wrote two books on the subject: “Hearts Beneath the Badge” and “The Price They Pay.” She also wrote articles on law enforcement suicide.

Kurt Solomon was a patrol officer for more than 30 years with the Worcester department and was approaching retirement, Saucier said.
