Short timeline and open questions in the Irmo shooting: Around 1:15 a.m. on Sunday, September 28, 2025, deputies responded to reports of shots fired on Forest Walk Court. First on scene was a male victim with a gunshot wound to his upper body; after being taken to a hospital he gave deputies information that led them to a nearby residence. There, deputies found 65-year-old Keith Bagley on his front porch drinking a beer and took him into custody. Deputies then discovered 37-year-old Rachel Leeann Hinson Branham unresponsive in the doorway of the home; she was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators say Branham, the injured man and Bagley were acquainted, but no motive has been released and the investigation remains active. Neighbors recalled Branham as kind and always looking out for others. Bagley was charged with murder, attempted murder and two counts of possession of a weapon during a violent crime; court records show a 2014 conviction for assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature. Does anyone have information about Branham, her movements that night, or the relationships among the people involved?
