In 2009, Jonathan Wayne Broyhill served as the best man at Jamie Kirk Hahn and Nation Richard Hahn's wedding. The former best man was arrested today for fatally stabbing the bride and wounding her husband at their home in North Carolina.
Wral reports, citing "people close to the case," that Broyhill was having dinner with the Hahn's on Monday night. Nation left the room for a few minutes and when he returned he reportedly found his former best man stabbing his wife.
Hahn's family said in a statement: "We lost a beautiful and loving wife, daughter and friend ... We all lost a pure and brave spirit. She had a gift for bringing us together -- black and white, young and old, gay and straight. She challenged us to work together for a better world."
Broyhill, 31, worked for Sky Blue Strategies, Jamie Hahn's political consulting firm.
Former Democratic U.S. Rep. Brad Miller said he hired Sky Blue for fundraising help in 2010. Broyhill was the primary person with access to fundraising software, Miller said.

"Some of the things that Jon said about the campaign finances were inconsistent with other information," Miller saidWednesday, according to the Raleigh News Observer. "It's probably the case that Jamie was askingquestions on behalf of the campaign about campaign finances. I think it's bound to be part of the investigation of Jon's motive," Miller said
Miller emphasized that he is unaware of any law enforcement inquiry into election money and said any investigation is limited to his campaign. The Federal Elections Commission sent Miller campaign treasurer John Wallace a letter requesting details on donors who appear to have received refunds amounting to almost double what they donated.
Broyhill is currently in the hospital recovering from self-inflicted wounds. Police said that they will be charging him with the murder of Jamie Hahn.
