Norman Howard, 51, murdered his girlfriend, Angela, by shooting her in the head.

Last fall, Angela told police that Howard had said he would kill her, and that he threatened to stab her with a screwdriver in their home.

The night of the murder, the couple went together to a Minneapolis bar. Howard became enraged at Sangster when she didn’t want to leave the bar when he did. Later that evening, he shot Angela in his car. Later that night, Howard told a friend that he “killed his woman” and then passed out.

Norman Howard was charged with two counts of second-degree murder. He was convicted of rape in 1979 and third-degree assault in 1989. Howard was sentenced to ten years in prison for Angela’s murder.
