Gary Christopher Davis, 47, was shot and killed inside the Grafton, West Virginia, home he shared with his wife on the night of August 27, 2014. Police were dispatched to the Briarcliff Apartments on Baltimore Street at about 9:46 p.m.; officers found Davis with a gunshot wound to the abdomen and he died at the scene. Those who knew him remembered his devotion to family, his grandchildren, and interests in classic cars, rock music, fishing, hunting, video games and the outdoors.

Investigators alleged the shooting occurred during a domestic dispute and identified Davis’s wife, Tuesday Sue Allen Davis (married March 24, 1989), as the person responsible. Authorities said a .45-caliber handgun was used. She was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and a magistrate later found probable cause for the charge at a September 2014 preliminary hearing.
