Mrs. Nowak is the US astronaut who was arrested for attempted kidnapping and, now, attempted murder.

More of the quote for context:

Detective William Becton interviewed Mrs Nowak at the airport. In the charging affidavit he states that Ms Nowak was involved in a relationship with Mr Oefelein, a father of two. "The relationship was categorised as more than a working relationship, but less than a romantic relationship. Mrs Nowak discovered that Mr Oefelein was also involved with Ms Shipman."

He adds in the document: "Mrs Novak stated that she was not trying to cause any bodily harm to Ms Shipman and that she only wanted to scare her into talking with her.

"I asked Mrs Nowak about the steel mallet and the BB gun. Mrs Nowak stated that the BB gun was going to be used to entice Ms Shipman to talk with her."

As to Heric's query about "Who writes this stuff?", I don't see where anybody wrote anything. It's a direct quote, straight out of the detctive's mouth.
