Tragedy Strikes Wizard’s Digital Products

It also struck at Microsoft’s Xbox division when the Project Manager for Digital Products at Wizards of the Coast, Joseph Batten murdered his estranged wife, Melissa Batten, a Software Development Engineer in Test (and Harvard Law School graduate) and then killed himself.  I got this on my Destructoid feed.

Apparantly it all began after the former Microsoft employee Joseph discovered that his wife had an affair, obtained a gun, and threatend to kill himself. This part of the story was discovered after further research on the Seattle Times.
