A dispute believed to have started on social media escalated into fatal violence in late summer 2017. On the afternoon of Sunday, August 20, 2017, a shooting near Ronthor Drive and Tower Road in Social Circle, Georgia left 24-year-old Heather Smith of Covington dead at the scene and a second man, 26-year-old Quantavious Banks of Social Circle, wounded and taken to hospital.

Authorities say the victims and the person arrested were acquainted. Desmond Sherron Jackson, 22, who lived at the address where the shooting occurred, was taken into custody and held at the Walton County Jail. He was charged with felony murder, two counts of aggravated assault, one count of aggravated battery, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime.

Heather Smith was a mother of two. Beyond the charges laid and the agencies involved in the investigation, key details about motive and the sequence of events remain unclear. Did anyone in the area witness what led up to the shooting or have information about the dispute?
