Forrest Blake Self, 34, was shot and killed at his mobile home in a Foley mobile home park on Doc McDuffie Road on the evening of June 5, 2026. Deputies from the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office found Self with multiple gunshot wounds after a 911 call about a shooting around 5:30 p.m.; deputies’ life-saving efforts were unsuccessful and Self was pronounced dead at the scene. He is described as a devoted father to two sons, Johnathan and Gracen, and by family as generous and outdoors-oriented.

A neighbor, 37-year-old Patrick Beasley, was detained at the scene and charged with murder. Prosecutors say the dispute began when Beasley went to Self’s home to help Self’s girlfriend pack a car, an argument ensued, and Beasley produced a firearm and shot Self three times in the chest and upper abdomen. The defense says Beasley and his wife were responding to a woman screaming, that Self threatened Beasley’s family, and that Beasley fired after Self allegedly lunged at him.

A judge set bond at $150,000 with house arrest conditions if released. The conflicting accounts leave the precise circumstances unresolved. Does anyone have information about the events that evening or the people involved?
