Rachel Renee Roberts was 23 when she was killed on August 7, 2018, during a domestic-related shooting at a residence on North Skyward Drive in the Breezewood community near Newark, Delaware. Known affectionately as Sweet Pea, she graduated from St. Georges Technical High School in 2013 and was inside the home that evening with a young child and another family member.

Investigators say Roberts’s former boyfriend, Probyn Morris, forced his way into the house armed with a handgun around 5:00 p.m. A commotion allowed the relative and child to flee to a neighbor’s home, and witnesses reported hearing several gunshots as police were en route. Responding officers found Roberts in the yard with multiple gunshot wounds; she was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead. Morris was also found in the yard with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the scene, with a handgun located nearby.

The Delaware Medical Examiner ruled Roberts’s death a homicide and Morris’s death a suicide. Police identified Morris as the person responsible and said they were not looking for additional suspects, but because he died at the scene there was no arrest or criminal trial. Does anyone have information about Rachel’s life in the Breezewood area or about that evening that could help complete the record?
