The deaths of a married couple, 36-year-old Elizabeth Fulton Evans and 47-year-old Jason Evans on New Year’s Eve likely officially will be ruled a murder-suicide based on forensic evidence from the crime scene, authorities said.

According to Boerne Police Department call sheets, deputies first were alerted to the family’s 100 block Ridge Place address at 10 p.m. on Dec. 31 when the mother of Fulton Evans called 911, saying she suspected her son-in-law killed her daughter in the family’s garage while their six children were in a room inside the house. The couple had six children, ranging in age from 14 months to 15 years.

Reports showed Evans made several phone calls to those close to him after allegedly shooting his wife Dec. 31, including his sisters and a man living in Florida, claiming he accidentally shot his wife and was going to shoot himself because he “couldn’t deal with it.”
