LALATE can report that just days before McNair’s death (and Sahel Kazemi’s DUI), Ignagni was co-promoting a Nashville nightlife event. Party Like A Rock Star at Sky Lounge featured Leah Ignagni among the promoters for the event. Ignagni’s 61Five reveals it’s a Nashville Nightlife and Entertainment website (”coming soon”).
USA Today reports the following:
A Nashville woman named Leah Ignagni also told police she had been dating McNair and, in the weeks before his death, she had left the Lea Avenue condo and was followed home by a woman in a black Escalade.In July, LALATE broke to you that McNair, married to wife Mechelle Cartwright (aka Mechelle or Michelle McNair), was found dead in a rented condo alongside Kazemi’s body. Kazemi had previously confessed to her ex boyfriend that McNair and her were dating, that he had bought her an Escalade, he met her while she was working as a waitress, and (as she told her sister) was set to marry Kazemi (so she believed).
Ignagni, who is listed on her LinkedIn profile as the senior editor of a start-up magazine called 61Five, also told police she saw the same Escalade parked outside her apartment building and circling the block on a couple other occasions. On the night after Kazemi was arrested on a DUI charge and McNair bailed her out of jail, he went to Ignagni’s apartment and spent the night.
Instead, by Saturday they were both dead. Initial reports said double homicide but LALATE quickly told you the gun location, the details inside in the condo, all pointing to a homicide suicide.
A report in New York Daily News had a source close to Mechelle claiming she didn’t know about the affair, “she’s blindsided” by it and “crushed”. Kazemi’s sister, Soheyla Kazemi, told The Florida Times-Union of Jacksonville that Sahel believed McNair and her were set to marry.
The McNair Family had issued the following statement:
“The families of Steve McNair in Mississippi and Tennessee appreciate the concern, thoughts and prayers during this difficult time of our loss of a husband, father and son. The family requests everyone would allow them time to mourn. The McNair family appreciates and continues to request your prayers at this time."Source news.lalate.com/
