Carl Edward Robinson, 64, of Supply, North Carolina, was found on his front porch on November 3, 2017 with a gunshot wound to the abdomen and was pronounced dead while en route to the hospital. A neighbor discovered him at the scene.

Investigators learned Robinson had received threatening voicemails from Jeffrey Len Carlyle, 56, also of Supply, who accused Robinson of an affair with Carlyle’s wife. Carlyle later admitted during a police interview that he had thought about killing Robinson for a month or two, took a double-barrel shotgun to Robinson’s home, shot him, and confessed to enjoying the act. Carlyle was arrested, charged with murder, and held in the Brunswick County Detention Center without bail.

The death devastated Robinson’s community and underscores how a personal dispute escalated to deadly violence. If anyone knew Robinson or has information about the events leading up to November 3, 2017, please share what you know.
