COVINGTON, Ga. (AP) - Authorities in Newton County say a double shooting that left a husband and wife dead in their home was a murder-suicide.
Newton County officials worked with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, and an autopsy determined that 44-year-old Robert Dendy's wounds were self-inflicted.
His 39-year-old wife, Lendene, was a teacher at Live Oak Elementary School.
Officials are unsure of the motive behind the shooting.
Covington is about 35 miles east of Atlanta.
