http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2008/04/25/victims_kin_say_spouse_was_controlling/ Plymouth County prosecutors said John Tassinari, 29, used two .45-caliber handguns from his collection to repeatedly shoot his wife, who fell in the driveway of their Pilgrim Street home Tuesday night, suffering multiple gunshot wounds.
Authorities said Tassinari called Abington police on the 911 line around 10:10 p.m., declaring, "My wife has been cheating on me, and I just shot her dead. Please come arrest me. . . . I'm sorry." Their son, Francis, was home, but a 10-year-old son Barbara Tassinari had from an earlier relationship was with his father at the time, relatives said.

He said John Tassinari was issued a permit to own weapons several years ago and was given a license to carry a concealed weapon in 2004. The chief said that Tassinari wanted the concealed permit for target shooting.
"He had nothing in his record that would statutorily disqualify him" from being issued the license to carry a concealed weapon, the chief said.
