Amanda Mandy Mincey McBrayer, 37, was fatally shot at a home on Gauntt Road in Walton County, Georgia, on June 24, 2026. Her mother, Jennifer Lynn Mincey, was also shot and later died at Grady Memorial Hospital. Walton County deputies found Amanda deceased at the scene and Jennifer was transported to the hospital where she succumbed to her injuries.

The suspect was identified as 57-year-old Ralph Edward Mincey, Amanda’s father and Jennifer’s husband. He was taken into custody at the scene and charged with two counts of murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime. 911 calls released after the shooting include Ralph Mincey telling a dispatcher he had lost it following an argument; the preliminary investigation indicates the dispute began between Amanda and her father and that Jennifer intervened.

Ralph Mincey was booked into the Walton County Jail and held without bond, and initial court proceedings had begun. The case is pending in the judicial system. If anyone knew Amanda or Jennifer, or has information about the events on Gauntt Road that evening, please come forward.
