On February 8, 2024, deputies in Winder, Georgia, responded to a 911 call about multiple people shot at a residence on Kendall Park Drive. Inside the home they found 64-year-old Michael Alan Arvold and his 66-year-old wife, Susan Denise Arvold, both dead of gunshot wounds. A 35-year-old son of Susan, Cody Donavan Jones, placed the 911 call and was found at the scene with gunshot injuries; he was taken to a hospital and placed under guard by law enforcement.

Authorities identified Jones as the suspect in the double homicide and, after questioning at the hospital, sought arrest warrants charging him with two counts of malice murder. The household had a prior violent incident in May of the previous year when Jones allegedly stabbed Michael Arvold in the stomach; Jones was arrested then, later indicted on aggravated assault and weapon possession charges, and released on bond following a 45-day mental health evaluation. The investigation into the February killings is ongoing.

Are there readers who knew Michael Arvold or his family, or who have information about what happened on February 8?
