On the evening of February 23, 2020, Cathy Prescott, 62, and her husband, George Prescott, were found shot to death in their Natchez, Mississippi, home on North Hampton Road. Investigators say their son, Colton Prescott, went to the residence to pick up his 9-month-old daughter, an argument ensued, and both parents were fatally shot. Colton fled with the baby but was located and arrested later that night in southern Adams County about 15 miles away; the infant was found unharmed and returned to her mother.

Friends and family described Colton as having struggled with illicit drug use and still affected by a family tragedy in 2016 when his 3-year-old son died in an ATV accident. Reports say Colton showed erratic behavior during his arrest and made a statement claiming to be Jesus Christ. In September 2022 he pleaded guilty to two counts of second-degree murder and was sentenced to 60 years in prison, to be served as consecutive 30-year terms.

Does anyone have information about the Prescott family or the years leading up to February 2020 that could shed light on what happened?
