Arkansas mom, two children found shot; feds join probe

The Sebastian County Sheriff's Office says Charity Beallis, 40, and her two children were found fatally shot during a Dec. 3 welfare check at their home in Bonanza, Arkansas, and that the U.S. Secret Service and Homeland Security Investigations are assisting. Investigators said no suspect has been named, 12 search warrants are in progress (six served), and court records show the killings occurred a day after a final divorce hearing; the husband, Randall Beallis, previously pled to a misdemeanor battery charge and is not a suspect as of Friday, according to local reports.
