Family identifies Georgia mother shot and killed in her Gwinnett County home

GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. — Family members have identified a Georgia mother who was shot and killed inside her Gwinnett County home on Saturday evening.

Jackmerly Hernandez Rodriguez, 31, was identified as the victim, according to WSBTV.

The victim’s family members received a call just on Saturday that something was wrong at her house. Rosa, a family friend who did not want to share her last name out of fear of retaliation, said “the little boy is suffering, this is kind of difficult for us.”

Police are interviewing several witnesses who were inside the home when the shooting happened.

So far, no one has been arrested and police have not named a suspect.

“She was very happy. She wanted to work. She just bought her car. She was just getting up, and she was a very hard-working woman,” Rosa said.
