An update from our Shoals Newsroom, where Lauderdale county shooting case has turned into a murder-suicide.
James Christopher Robertson shot himself in the head while on the run from federal and state authorities.
Saturday afternoon, he led state troopers to a home on County Road 472, where he then got out and turned the gun on himself.
He was air-lifted to Huntsville Hospital, where he died.
Robertson was accused of shooting to death Lauderdale County Sheriff's Dispatcher, and former girlfriend Regina Russell.
Her body was found Friday night at the Shoal Creek Nature Preserve.
We've now learned that where Robertson shot himself is the same house where Robertson's brother committed a double murder-suicide.
Back in January, Jackie Robertson shot his wife and nephew, before turning the gun on himself.
A compilation of daily news articles from around the United States about deaths (including both people and animals) that appear to occur in the context of a past or present intimate relationship, focusing on 2009-present. (NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
