BERLIN, Wis. (AP) — Bail is set at $1 million cash bond for a Wisconsin man charged in the shooting deaths of his estranged wife and her boyfriend.  Thirty-three-year-old Nicholas Tuinstra faces two counts of first-degree intentional homicide in the deaths of Melissa Tuinstra and Justin Daniels. Both victims were 28 years old.  According to the complaint, Nicholas Tuinstra initially denied going to his wife’s Berlin apartment the night she and Daniels were shot but later changed his story and told police he was there. Melissa Tuinstra had filed for divorce days earlier.  Nicholas Tuinstra appeared in court Thursday and was ordered to have no contact with the victims’ families.
