A 61 year old Boston computer consultant namedshot and killed his wife60, and then turned the gun on himself last night, September 28, 2008. Prior to carrying out his premeditated plan, Mogensen posted a wedding photo of the couple on his website and added their date of birth, marriage and death.

The couple's bodies were found late last night after a police SWAT team entered their 20th floor Charles River Park high-rise apartment building. Law enforcement personnel were dispatched after receiving a 911 call at 9:30 p.m. from a man who said he'd killed his wife and would commit suicide if police entered the apartment. When police arrived at the residence they heard gunshots and discovered the husband and wife dead of gun shot wounds.

Christian Mogensen was a self employed web developer and IT consultant and Sharon Glassman worked at Brigham and Women's Hospital, which is affiliated with Harvard Medical School. Glassman worked in the Trauma and Burn Center as a Program Assistant.

A neighbor who lives a few doors down from the couple and knew them casually remarked that she never heard them argue. The couple had lived in the building for 10 years. She said:



"They were both computer types. They seemed like a very, very compatible couple. Sharon was just delightful, always with a smile."
