The AJC is reporting and a Canton man
murdered his girlfriend and son before turning the gun on himself.
Police responded to an apartment in the 3100 block of Ridge Road early Friday and found the bodies of Christopher E. Conley, 30; his 25-year-old girlfriend Minnie Carr; and their 4-year-old son, Casey Noah Conley, Det. Candy Worthy said.
The preliminary investigation indicates that all three suffered gunshot wounds, and the bodies are being sent to the GBI Crime Lab in Atlanta for autopsies, Worthy said. A carbine rifle, which appears to be the weapon used in the deaths, was in the room next to the bodies and will be tested, she said.
"It appears from the initial walk through that it was the male who shot them," Canton police Lt. German Rivas said.
...
He also said police had been called to the couple’s apartment once in the past. Last year, Conley, intoxicated, locked himself in the bathroom and threatened to commit suicide.
“He threatened to cut his throat, but when police arrived, he had passed out,” Rivas said.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Carr and Conley families.
