GAINESVILLE, Ga. (TCD) -- A 31-year-old man has been taken into custody following the fatal stabbing of his wife, who was also a mother of four.
According to a news release from the Gainesville Police Department, on April 15, officers performed a welfare check at Spring Valley Apartments, where they found 32-year-old Casey Allen deceased from apparent stab wounds.
Police identified Christopher Snow as the primary suspect and located him in Gwinnett County, where he was involved in a serious vehicle crash on I-85. He was hospitalized and later booked into the Hall County Jail on April 19 on charges of felony murder, aggravated battery, aggravated assault, and a probation violation. He remains held without bond.
The victim's sister told WXIA-TV Snow and Allen had just celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary Friday, April 14 — one day before she was found dead.
