On January 12, 2023, officers answered a 9-1-1 call to a home on West Via Cerro Colorado in Sahuarita, Arizona, and found 82-year-old Janet Johnson dead of a gunshot wound alongside her 78-year-old husband, Mark Johnson, who also had a fatal gunshot wound. Investigators concluded that Mark Johnson shot his wife and then turned the gun on himself; he reportedly called 9-1-1 and told the dispatcher he had killed his wife.

There were no prior police responses to the couple’s residence, and the case was closed with Mark identified as the sole suspect and no arrests made. No other details about motive or circumstances were released.

Does anyone in Sahuarita remember the Johnsons or have information that could shed light on what led to this murder-suicide?
