John Montgomery, 31, was shot and killed on October 19, 2015, in Rock Spring, Georgia, after an argument at a mobile home on Straight Gut Road escalated into violence. According to accounts of the night, John and another man tried to calm the situation and John got into his car to leave. As the vehicle was departing, shots were fired at it, the car struck a shed and became disabled, and John was shot in the head. He was found mortally wounded in the driver’s seat and died en route to the hospital.

Authorities arrested property owner Michael James Gobert soon after the shooting and charged him with murder. A Walker County grand jury indicted Gobert on counts including malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, and firearms offenses. At trial jurors acquitted Gobert of malice murder but convicted him of felony murder and related charges; he received life without parole plus additional terms. Another person, Edrius Putnam, was charged separately with simple battery for striking a woman during the same altercation.
