Deputies from the Toombs County Sheriff’s Office received reports of a shooting incident around 2:19 p.m. on Monday, October 19, at a home in the 100 block of McNatt Falls Road, per WTOC.
Sheriff Jordan Kight told the outlet that Grace Edge barged into the place with a firearm and shot her ex-husband, 75-year-old Wallace Edge, and her girlfriend, 40-year-old Pamela Cook, fatally.
Cook told the dispatchers how Edge entered the house and opened fire on the victims. She added that the attacker didn’t try to have a conversation and just started shooting at them.
Edge and her husband had a complicated relationship
Deputies later told the outlet that Edge and Wallace were married around a decade ago and lived separately after the divorce.
Reports suggested the ex-couple had a complicated relationship, as they were romantically involved after their divorce as well.
Police have charged Edge with seven counts of malice murder, felony murder and aggravated assault against the victims.
Investigators later found that Edge and her former husband were in a tumultuous marriage, as deputies were earlier called to their place multiple times with reports of domestic abuse and related incidents.
Both the accused and the victim would blame each other for the actions and no arrests were made in those incidents.
“When something like this happens, it is a shock and awe type feel to our community,” Kight said.
