Stephanie LaGrua, 58, of Marshall, North Carolina, was shot to death on December 12, 2012, alongside her mother, Hilma Barnett, in a case described as a double murder. Born August 8, 1954, in Jacksonville, Florida, LaGrua had lived in Madison County for 21 years, worked as an RN at Mission Hospital, and was a member of Freedom Church. She is survived by her daughter Gina Randall (also referred to as Gina Price in court testimony), brother Stephen Barnett, sister Suzanne West, four grandchildren and a great-grandchild.

Her husband, James LaGrua, pleaded guilty to two counts of second-degree murder for the shootings. He received consecutive sentences, each with a minimum of 20 years and a maximum of 25 years.
