Crystal Lynn McLamb, 43, of Bladenboro, North Carolina, was found dead at a home on Ruby Kidds Road on February 11, 2016, with a single gunshot wound to the face. She was born November 28, 1972, and is described as an outdoors enthusiast who enjoyed hunting and scuba diving. She was survived by her husband William Earl McLamb Jr., her children, and extended family.

Initial reports said the wound was an accidental self-inflicted gunshot while McLamb and her boyfriend, Kelly Dwayne Hamilton, were watching a movie and she was moving a loaded firearm from a coffee table. Detectives later reported inconsistencies in Hamilton’s account. Investigators say two shots were fired, and a spent shell casing that testing linked to the weapon on the coffee table was found hidden under a mattress in Hamilton’s bedroom. Hamilton was arrested on February 12, 2016, and charged with first-degree murder.
