Two people found dead in Saint Helena Island home; investigation underway
On Friday, March 22, 2024, shortly after 9:00 p.m., deputies were called to a Pearl Harbor Lane home after family members went to check on a relative out of concern.
The man and woman who lived in the home had not been seen or heard from in a few days, which was out of character. This prompted a welfare check by the family.
After entering the residence, a 38-year-old man and a 41-year-old woman were discovered deceased, both suffering from gunshot wounds.
The circumstances surrounding the deaths are currently under investigation and preliminary information indicates that both were murdered.
The Sheriff’s Office urges anyone with information related to this investigation to contact Investigator Petrone at 843-255-3440, or if wishing to remain anonymous and for a possible reward, Crime Stoppers of the Lowcountry at 843-554-1111.
