On July 10, 2020, 29-year-old Tyler Sledge was shot and killed during a domestic dispute at a residence on Kelly Drive in Hinesville, Georgia. Police say a verbal argument between Sledge and his girlfriend escalated when a frequent visitor to the home, Christopher Richie, retrieved a firearm and confronted Sledge. Sledge was struck by a single gunshot to his upper torso and was found unresponsive; medical personnel pronounced him dead at the scene.

Richie fled after the shooting and was located and arrested in neighboring Long County on July 11, 2020. He was charged with murder, felony murder, and aggravated assault and was booked into the Liberty County Jail. At his initial court appearance in mid-July 2020 he was denied bond; a judge again denied bond at a hearing on August 17, 2020.

Are there details about the timeline that someone who knew the parties can add, or witnesses who were present that investigators might have missed?
