Hi, Josh's son's mother here.

WOW.

Dusty is a deeply disturbed woman. This is a case of domestic violence with a female aggressor. If you want or need REAL facts: deywhit832 at gmail.

DM, So sorry for your loss. Has she been convicted yet or still pending trial?

Joshua Dylan Southwell, 46, was found dead at the couple’s home in Hudson, Florida, on May 14, 2025. Deputies responded after a 6:26 p.m. 911 call in which his wife, Dusty Lanell Southwell, reported he was dead and said she had pulled the trigger. Investigators located Joshua in the master bathroom shower with a single gunshot wound to the forehead.

Pasco County deputies arrested 49-year-old Dusty Lanell Southwell on May 15, 2025, on a charge of second-degree murder; booking records show she was held without bond and later entered a not-guilty plea. No other arrests have been announced.

Joshua’s obituary and community memorial pages describe him as vibrant and outdoors-loving and say his sudden death has left family and friends in shock. Does anyone have information about Joshua, the property on Judy Avenue, or the events that evening?
