Jeanne Marie Costello Edwards, 57, was shot and killed at her home on Dale Road in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania, on the evening of November 25, 2019. Her son, Alex, returned from work just before 5:30 p.m. and heard a pop as he entered the driveway. Inside the house he encountered his mother’s ex-boyfriend, 61-year-old William Tomas Torres of Elkton, Maryland, armed with a shotgun; Torres reportedly pointed the weapon at Alex and then fled.

Police found Edwards suffering from a shotgun wound and she was taken to Abington Memorial Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. An autopsy determined she died from multiple shotgun pellet wounds to her torso and the death was ruled a homicide. Torres was arrested soon after at a private residence by Limerick Township police and charged with first-degree murder, third-degree murder, simple assault, recklessly endangering another person, and possession of an instrument of crime. He was arraigned and held without bail; a preliminary hearing was scheduled for December 10, 2019.

If anyone knew Jeanne, her movements that evening, or has information about the incident, please share what you know.
