maybe the wife hung the husband then hung herself some wives are bigger than there husbands sad waste all the same

Perhaps I am incorrect but I believe the correct word here is "hanged".

Odd method of killing one's wife, as I understand most domestic violence is usually more violent.

Hanging is often used as a method of making a statement, i think. Very dramatic scene...

You are correct. Hang has two past tense and past participle forms; hanged and hung. You should use hung in general situations, as in 'They hung out the washing', whilst hanged should only be used when talking about executing someone by hanging, as in 'The prisoner was hanged' or any death by hanging.

Indeed. Meat is hung, people are hanged.

What does it matter, hang hunged hanged..............two people are dead and I would agree with the poster who said it was an odd way to murder someone. I am not going to write any more, I think it is unsavoury to speculate on the deaths of people we don't know.

RIP

......... and there hangs a tale possibly hanging in the breeze?
