Grace Thrasher, a 74-year-old woman, was found fatally shot in her mobile home at Wyngate Mobile Home Park in Texas Township, Michigan, on May 4, 2015. Her granddaughter discovered the body. The medical examiner determined Grace died from a single gunshot wound.

Grace had been living with her 75-year-old ex-husband, Jimmy Thrasher, despite their prior divorce. Neighbors and family described a tense, frequently argumentative relationship and said Jimmy had previously made threats against her life. Jimmy was taken into custody after Grace was found and said the shooting was an accident, alleging a struggle over a shotgun during an argument. Family and authorities expressed skepticism about that account.

Jimmy Thrasher was charged with homicide and ultimately pleaded no contest to second-degree murder and felony firearm use. In February 2016 a Kalamazoo County circuit court judge sentenced him to 14 to 25 years in prison; testimony at sentencing noted the couple’s volatile relationship and that Jimmy was highly intoxicated at the time. Does anyone have further information about Grace’s life or the neighborhood around Wyngate Mobile Home Park?
