Grant Solomon - 539

On July 20, 2020, Grant Solomon was struck by his own truck and killed. The only witness to Grant?s death was his father, Aaron Solomon. Some in the family say that Aaron was abusive and that the abuse was ignored or not taken seriously by members of their church, school, and community. Because of this, Grant was hopeful that after turning 18, he?d be able to get custody of his sister Gracie. This would protect her from their father?s alleged sexual, psychological, emotional, and physical abuse. Grant's sudden death prevented this. Was Grant?s death a tragic accident, or was this Aaron?s last chance at keeping his family under control?

Samantha never made it to her apartment; her driver actually went the opposite direction. This driver wasn?t her Uber driver, it was a man that had been driving around the area hunting for a victim. She was found later that morning about an hour and a half away from Columbia with around 120 stab wounds. Investigators moved quickly to find Samantha's killer before he could harm anyone else.
