How they died
Suicide
Justin Schmitz reportedly shot himself and set his house on fire following a domestic dispute with his wife. While leaving in her mother's car, Schmitz's wife reported that her husband had shot the car three times. Neither she nor her mother were physically injured. As deputies responded and set up a perimeter, they reportedly noticed smoke coming from the roof. Firefighters entered the house after attempting to contact Schmitz and extinguished the fire before it engulfed the home. Firefighters found Schmitz's body inside with a gunshot wound.
