Authorities in Louisiana are investigating a potential murder-suicide where a woman fatally shot her husband, Steven Williamson, and an 8-year-old child before taking her own life. The incident is believed to have occurred over the weekend, and the bodies were discovered by a concerned relative who couldn’t reach the family. The 8-year-old victim was not the woman’s child, but she had custody. Livingston Parish Sheriff Jason Ard confirmed that there were no prior violent-related calls from the residence. The motive behind the shooting is unclear, and there is no indication of a domestic issue in the Williamson household. Ard described the situation as devastating and expressed his condolences to the family. The incident took place in Livingston Parish, located east of Baton Rouge and northwest of New Orleans. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are still processing the crime scene.
