Why would Mrs. Dermond be removed from the home, instead of killed like Mr. Dermond?
He was in the garage? Was he trying to flee from the perp?
This makes me wonder if this was just some sort of hit. Why the wife was taken, I do not know. Maybe they or he didn't want to leave a witnesses. But if that's the case, why not just kill her there on the spot? I don't get the vibe that she had anything to do with her husband's murder. I wouldn't expect much of a struggle from folks their age. Not that they couldn't. I agree that the person or persons that did this were known to the victims or created some sort of ruse to get into their house. Do we know what kind of business that the husband and or wife was in? I find this case utterly putrid, abhorrent, and offensive.
maybe they could not hurt her but at the same time could not leave her there to ID them.

And if that is the case, where would she be, and what would they do with her, if they could not hurt her previously? Hold her captive?
IMOO.
i have no idea but we are clear thinking individuals not murderers.
I am wondering if they would hold her captive for ransom? Maybe things went awry??
IMOO.
Since it was mentioned that Shirley has been missing sometime between May 2nd (Friday)and May 4th (Sunday), I am wondering if she was a regular at Lake Oconee Community Church, and she didn't show up for services?
This link mentions her name, so perhaps Shirley was a member of this church?

She could have been a member but that posting was from 2013, if that is what you are mentioning.
