Her last phone call was recorded.
The day before her tragic death, country singer Mindy McCready had an emotional conversation with Danno Hanks, her private investigator and friend who taped their phone calls.
Just over a month ago, David Wilson, McCready's boyfriend and the father of her second child, died of a gunshot wound, and in this exclusive audio clip E! News obtained from the country singer's last recorded conversation with Hanks, she recounts the experience of finding Wilson dead in his Heber Springs, Ark. home.
"He was lying on the ground with his brains all over the floor," McCready says. "And then I held him and I kissed him and I told him I forgave him. And I said, 'David, none of this means anything. You didn't have to do this. Please, don't die. Please. We love you so much. Please don't die.'"
Though it was reported that the gunshot wound that killed Wilson was self-inflicted, local and state authorities are still trying to piece together what happened before they put the case to bed and the County Sheriff refused to confirm or deny if McCready was a suspect.
