Your right, IIRC her husband was a member of an extremist branch of the Police force called the Blue fist, or something like that and, IF memory serves, they were responsible for her husbands death.
Seeing her in the Police force, and using some detective skills was good though, it was a superb mini and easily the best of the series of "Avengers:Icons" mini-series (I did like the Vision one to, though, but Tigra's was better IMHO!)
Cheers.
James.
