Bonnie Lanier Rushing, 53, was shot and killed at her home on Stilson Leefield Road in Brooklet, Georgia, on October 23, 2020. A retired employee of the Department of Family and Children Services and active in her church and community, she was found wounded on her front porch after an intruder broke into her house and shot her. The attacker then stole her GMC Acadia and fled the state.

Investigators quickly identified 44-year-old Lee Allen Mayhew, a fugitive from Tennessee with outstanding warrants, as the intruder. Police say he had burglarized a nearby home the day before and stolen several firearms. Hours before the killing, Rushing had shared an alert about an armed and dangerous suspect in the area on her social media page. Mayhew was arrested in Columbia County, Florida, the day after the killing when the stolen vehicle was tracked there; authorities said he acted alone.

The community remembers Rushing for her servant’s heart and her role as a wife and mother. Does anyone have information about Bonnie’s last day or the period leading up to October 23, 2020?
