Murder rocks peaceful Maryland suburb after wife, 50, realized 'big hearted' husband, 53, 'was having AFFAIR'
A woman fatally gunned down her husband inside their Maryland home after allegedly finding text messages that indicated he was having an affair. Nicole Lanett Ward, 50, is charged with the murder of her husband Damian Ward, 53, after the couple got into an argument inside their Bowie home on July 19. Charging documents seen by Fox5 said that Ward told officers, who arrived on the scene, that she found a second phone belonging to her husband. On the device, she 'found photos and messages indicating that the decedent was having an extramarital affair with another woman,' according to the documents. She told officers that after finding the phone, she told her husband to 'pack his bags and leave the house'. The document added that the two continued to argue, before police say she pulled out a .357 Magnum revolver and shot him in the head. Neighbors who spoke with the outlet described Damian as a 'big, friendly guy, with an even bigger heart', while adding that the couple seemed happily married. According to the Maryland Judiciary, Ward is facing charges of first and second degree murder, assault in the first and second degree, reckless endangerment and the use of a firearm in a felony. Damian's father Greg shared a tribute to his son on social media, seemingly alluding to the alleged affair. He wrote: 'It has been a tremendous week navigating through this loss. My heart is truly broken, as he was a wonderful son (not without his faults). 'Still a great man. I will miss the family cookouts, the laughter, the fellowship, and our cigar and bourbon time. He will never be forgotten and will always be in my heart.' According to a fundraiser also organized by his father, Damian has a young daughter. Images on his social media show him and Nicole with the child. Friend Gilberto Frederick also posted a touching tribute to Damian, describing him as a 'gentle giant'. He said: 'Damian always had my back, no matter what. He was like that with everyone he loved. 'He was a gentle giant, for the most part. He was a big guy, but he had an even bigger heart. I will miss him tremendously. Rest in Peace, Damian. I love you, man.' In a statement Prince George's County Police Department said: 'The Prince George's County Police Department's Homicide Unit charged a suspect with fatally shooting her husband inside of their home on Saturday. 'The victim is 53-year-old Damian Ward of Bowie. The suspect is 50-year-old Nicole Lanett Ward.' It added: 'On July 19, 2025, at approximately 1:45 am, officers were dispatched to the couple's home in the 13200 block of Old Chapel Road in the unincorporated section of Bowie. 'Officers located the victim inside suffering from a gunshot wound. He died at the scene. 'The preliminary investigation revealed the suspect shot the victim during an argument. 'Nicole Ward is charged with first and second degree murder and related charges. She's in the custody of the Department of Corrections on a no-bond status.' Court records indicate that Ward is next expected to appear in court for a preliminary hearing next month.

BrowserStack Launches Suite of AI Agents to Redefine Software Quality at Scale
DUBLIN, June 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BrowserStack, the world's leading software testing platform, today announced the launch of BrowserStack AI, a suite of AI agents integrated throughout the testing lifecycle to help software teams accelerate release cycles, improve test coverage, and boost productivity by up to 50%. For most engineering teams, testing remains a major bottleneck. Analyzing requirements and writing effective test cases is time-consuming. Automated tests are often flaky or break with UI changes, requiring tedious maintenance. BrowserStack AI addresses these challenges with AI agents purpose-built for modern QA and development workflows. "We looked at where teams spend the most time in testing, and reimagined it with AI at the core," said Ritesh Arora, CEO and Co-founder of BrowserStack. "Our early results are game-changing, the Test Case Generator delivers 90% faster test creation with 91% accuracy, something generic LLMs can't achieve." Unlike generic copilots, BrowserStack AI agents are integrated into BrowserStack products, drawing context-aware insights from a unified data store across the testing lifecycle. Starting today, teams can access five new agents: With 20+ AI agents in development, these five represent the beginning of BrowserStack's comprehensive AI-powered testing ecosystem. "We've seen test cases increase fourfold using BrowserStack AI," said Greg Ward, Senior QA Engineer at Curry's. "Our teams are uncovering new edge cases and expanding their test coverage dramatically." BrowserStack AI's capabilities extend beyond the platform through the BrowserStack MCP Server, an innovative integration layer that enables developers and testers to test from their IDEs, LLMs or any other MCP-enabled client. Supporting popular AI tools including GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude, the MCP server reduces context switching and enables teams to access enterprise-grade testing capabilities through natural language interactions. With over 700 engineers working on its AI agent ecosystem, BrowserStack is committed to making intelligent, AI-assisted testing the standard for modern software teams. About BrowserStack BrowserStack is the world's leading software testing platform, powered by AI to help developers and QA teams deliver quality software at speed. Trusted by over 50,000 teams, including Amazon, Microsoft, and NVIDIA, BrowserStack powers more than three million tests every day across 21 global data centers. The platform gives teams instant access to over 30,000 real devices and browsers. Founded in 2011, BrowserStack is a privately held company backed by Accel, Bond, and Insight Partners.
