Atlanta police silent on more details in the apparent murder-suicide deaths of Christopher Edwards Jr., sister Erin Edwards and mom Marsha Edwards.
ATLANTA — Those who knew Christopher Edwards Jr. and his sister Erin Edwards say the siblings were a gift to the world.
"I've had the best summer, first with Chris in Miami and Erin in Italy. I could not ask for better children," Marsha Edwards wrote in an Aug. 21 Instagram post. Both had a passion for journalism. Christopher Jr. was a digital content manager for the Atlanta Mayor's Office of Film and Entertainment. Erin was a rising junior at Boston University and had just finished a summer internship with NBC New York.
Earlier this year, Women Works Media Group named her one of Atlanta's Most Powerful and Influential Woman of 2019. Dickerson said Dr. Edwards asked a relative to call police for a welfare check when he learned that Christopher Jr. didn't show up for work Aug. 21 and he couldn't get in contact with him, his ex-wife or Erin, who was supposed to fly back to Boston that day.
Another common motive is"spouse revenge," where a parent kills the child to get back at the ex-spouse for infidelity or a child custody dispute. But both types of cases almost always involve young, dependent children, Resnick said.It is not known if Marsha Edwards suffered from any mental and physical illness. People who are severely depressed or suicidal can mask their pain and create illusions of happiness on social media, said forensic psychiatrist Dr. Park Dietz.
