In May 2014, an elderly couple was murdered in an upscale community on Lake Oconee in Putnam County. Their killer or killers have escaped justice since that time. 88-year-old Russell Dermond and his 87-year-old wife Shirley, by all accounts, had no enemies. Russell Dermond was found beheaded in the garage of the couple’s lakefront home in early May and his wife’s body was later found in the lake.
