A rural home just outside Greenwood, South Carolina, was the scene of a deadly shooting that left 10-year-old Shey Nicole Dinkins, 30-year-old Megan Lee Gale Dinkins, and 56-year-old Randy Grant Perkins dead. The victims were residents of the same house. Another child was wounded but managed to run to a neighbor’s home to call for help.

Investigators identified 36-year-old Jeffery David Powell as the suspect. Authorities said Powell had a relationship with the victims, though the exact nature of that relationship was not disclosed. After the shooting he fled the state by commercial flight to Florida and was arrested hours later at a Jacksonville hotel. At the time, Powell had a pending Greenwood County breach of trust charge and prior domestic violence convictions; he was charged in connection with the triple homicide.

Does anyone have information about this family, their connections in the Greenwood area, or the day of the shooting that could help shed light on what happened?
