Death certificates for a man and woman found dead on May 1, 2015, in a Dubuque home indicate the woman was shot and killed, while the man died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.  Copies of the death certificates state that Andrew J. Birch, 27, shot himself twice in the head with a .38-caliber handgun.  Miranda Hogan, 20, was shot by someone other than herself with the same caliber
​weapon and died from a "contact gunshot to her forehead."
