Rhonda Elaine Randle, 63, was shot and killed inside her Tacoma, Washington, home on March 11, 2018. Officers who responded to a frantic 911 call from her 28-year-old son, Jullian Anderson-Randle, found the front door slightly ajar and heard him saying he had killed his mother. Rhonda Randle’s body was discovered just inside the front door; she had been shot multiple times.

Anderson-Randle told investigators he heard a noise on the front porch, believed someone was trying to break in, and opened fire to protect himself and the home. He said he realized only after shooting that the person on the porch was his mother. He was taken into custody and placed on suicide watch.

After reviewing the evidence and consulting with the family, the Pierce County Prosecutor’s Office decided not to file criminal charges, calling the shooting a horrible accident and stating that charging would not serve a constructive purpose. Does anyone have information about Rhonda or the household that could clarify what happened that morning?
