On July 7, 2024, Kelley A McCollom, 38, and her boyfriend Matthew Szejnrok, 22, were found shot and stabbed in their Palm Bay, Florida, home. The killings were first reported by McCollom’s 16-year-old daughter, Julia Egler, who told 911 an unknown intruder had broken in through a sliding glass door. Detectives later concluded Egler was the attacker. According to the investigation, Egler took a .38 special revolver from her mother’s bedroom, waited for them to return and shot McCollom multiple times in the living room.

She then shot Szejnrok repeatedly, ran out of ammunition, followed him into a bathroom and stabbed him with a chef’s knife before reloading and shooting him in the head when he asked to be taken out of his misery. Prosecutors charged Egler with two counts of first-degree premeditated murder and planned to try her as an adult; she was held without bond and indicted by a grand jury. The families of both victims are grieving, and police continue to investigate details of the deaths.

Did anyone know Kelley or Matthew and want to share information that could help investigators?
