Thomas Earl Adams II

How they died

Suicide

Jessica Adams brought her two children to a home where the children's father, Thomas Adams, was. The two parents got into a fight, and Jessica Adams took the children inside the home then stepped back outside to continue the argument. A person inside the home called 911 to report the altercation, and as deputies responded, the resident reported shots were fired, and Jessica Adams was possibly hit. When deputies arrived, they found her lying on the ground with a gunshot to the stomach, dying shortly after. Thomas Adams was gone. Police found him, and negotiations took place for several hours while he threatened to kill himself. The officers found Adams dead of a reportedly self-inflicted gunshot.
