Witnesses reported that after their divorce hearing , the estranged couple entered separate cars outside the courthouse when gunshots rang out.
According to law enforcement , Tom Mallory fired multiple rounds through the window of his car , striking Krystal Evans as she sat in her vehicle. Mallory then sped off before law enforcement could intervene.
Deputies later pursued him, and after a brief chase, Mallory shot himself. He was taken to the hospital and remains alive, though his condition is unclear.
“I feel like I don’t have anybody,” she told 11Alive , adding that her mother had been looking forward to starting a new chapter in life . “She was so happy after her divorce. She felt free . We were even talking about having a party .”
However, due to conflicting accounts from witnesses and the couple themselves, no consistent primary aggressor could be identified under Georgia’s family violence laws.
The sheriff also spoke about the complexity of the couple’s relationship, calling it a “toxic” situation that had escalated over time .
Something needs to be put in place I remember feeling scared when we had just divorced and my ex husband wanted spousal I was worried about leaving the courthouse all the time i even asked the court can we go separate times or days they said no I told some friends if something happens to me it’s him and I would catch him circling my neighborhood please take women serious when they say they’re scared or worried about being harmed when giong to court with an ex
