Margie Watkins, 82, of Axton, Virginia, died after being shot during a domestic dispute at a home on Sandy River Road in June 2024. She succumbed to her injuries two days after the attack. Two other women were shot at the same residence; one was hospitalized in the ICU and the third was treated and released.

Authorities identified 31-year-old Telvin Oshea Hairston of Martinsville as the suspect. Warrants allege Hairston broke down the door, shot the three women and told investigators his actions were motivated by not being allowed to see his children. One of the other victims was the mother of his children. Hairston was arrested by the Henry County Sheriff’s Office and charged with first-degree murder following Watkins’ death, along with counts of malicious wounding, using a firearm in the commission of a felony, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and armed burglary.

Does anyone have information about the home on Sandy River Road or about Margie Watkins and her family that could help clarify what happened that day?
