A 58 year old Kingston woman has been arrested in connection with yesterday’s fatal shooting.
According to Sheriff Clark Millsap, just before 3:30PM on Wednesday February 21, 2018, deputies and investigators responded to 53 Norton Road near Kingston, Georgia for a reported shooting. When they arrived, it was discovered that James “Sam” McCoy, 83, had been shot once and was deceased inside the residence. Investigators questioned his wife, Kim McCoy, 58, and later arrested her for one count of murder. Neighbors told WBHF that the couple had just recently divorced.
Kim McCoy is being held in the Bartow County Jail awaiting a Superior Court arraignment with no bond. It is possible that she could face more charges in this case, however at this point it is still under investigation.
