The Gwinnett County community is grappling with a tragic incident that occurred over the past weekend, which resulted in the deaths of two individuals in what police are investigating as a “domestic-related homicide.” The victims, 43-year-old Pilar Rosas and 40-year-old Maria Garza, were found inside a residence on Stone Hill Drive. A family member who came upon the scene placed the 911 call that brought officers to the home around 4 p.m. on Sunday, as reported by Online Athens.
Detectives at the scene are not searching for additional suspects, leading to speculation that this was an isolated event involving only the two deceased. WSBTV shared that, “Police believe the man shot the woman and then shot himself,” a grim conclusion to what was described as a “long history together” between the two. The exact circumstances have not been fully disclosed, as detailed by Online Athens.
In the wake of this tragic event, the Rosas and Garza children are facing not only the emotional loss but also the financial burden of arranging funerals for their parents. Yesenia Rosas, the daughter of the deceased, has turned to crowdfunding to ask for public support. “On July 13, our beloved parents, Maria Garza and Pilar Rosas, tragically passed away, leaving behind their three children: Yesenia Rosas, Jaqueline Rosas , and George Rosas. As we face this heartbreaking loss, we are asking for any contributions to help with the unexpected funeral expenses,” reads the GoFundMe page, according to FOX 5 Atlanta…
