Cops: After killing girlfriend in front of son, man found at ex-girlfriend’s home

Evans was taken to the Clayton County Jail and charged with malice murder, according to Channel 2 Action News.

Hodo’s 9-year-old son told police that after an argument at the apartment just after midnight, Evans “shot his mother multiple times, walked out of the apartment, and then came back in and began shooting her again,” the Clayton County Sheriff’s Office said.

Evans left the apartment after the alleged shooting, and the 9-year-old rode with sheriff’s deputies to show them where the suspect might be, according to the sheriff’s office. Evans was found at his ex-girlfriend’s house, Channel 2 reported.

Hodo's family started a GoFundMe page to raise money for burial expenses and for the family. As of Tuesday afternoon, it had raised more than $1,600.

A neighbor in the apartment complex said she heard the couple fighting “all the time,” and partly blames herself for the shooting.

“I can’t believe that I let this happen,” the neighbor, Cassandra Williams, told Channel 2. “Because I never reported it.”

Williams said Hodo’s son ran to her apartment to tell her his mother had been shot and was not breathing.
