Man Shoots 2 Girlfriends In The Face And Claims Both Slayings Were Accidents
Sandra Perry’s gruesome shooting death by her boyfriend was declared an accident until it happened to another woman 12 years later.
On July 21, 1996, Sandra Perry, a 29-year-old Seattle-based mother of three, and her boyfriend, Robert Kowalski, 34, were vacationing at the Glacier Bear Lodge in Yakutat, Alaska, a popular fishing destination.
Kowalski claimed that in the middle of the night he’d heard a bear and grabbed a 12-gauge shotgun that was on hand for protection. While investigating the situation, Kowalski tripped and fell, he said, and as he got up, he accidentally shot Perry in the face and killed her.
