They are Adina Rose Napoleon, 49, and Eugene Sochan, 52, both of Moberly Lake.

The cause of death in both cases was a gunshot wound and investigators concluded that Sochan fired one shot, which proved fatal to Napoleon, and then killed himself, the Coroners Service said, adding that alcohol and drugs appear to have been a factor.
