Sherese Stafford, 33, was found dead from a gunshot wound at her home at 16849 NE 41st Ct. in Citra, Florida, after law enforcement responded to a report of a shooting at about 4:13 p.m. on February 27, 2024. Officers discovered Stafford’s body on arrival and the Marion County Sheriff’s Office opened a homicide investigation.

Investigators identified Stafford’s husband, 41-year-old Kenron Vereen, as the suspect. Witnesses reported Vereen fled in a white pickup truck; that vehicle was later found abandoned on NE 41st Court. Vereen turned himself in to the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office in Jesup, Georgia, around 9:45 p.m. the same day and was arrested on unrelated warrants including aggravated battery, fleeing or attempting to elude, battery and willful obstruction. He is being held at the Wayne County Jail on a $4,500 bond. Marion County had not charged Vereen in Stafford’s death as the investigation remained ongoing. Authorities say the shooting is believed to be an isolated incident and any children in the area were found safe.
