Florida Woman Accused of Killing Both Ex-Husbands on Same Day

A 51-year-old Florida woman has been arrested on suspicion of killing both of her ex-husbands in a single day. Susan Erica Avalon of Citrus County was taken into custody after police responded to reports of a shooting in Bradenton, Manatee County, on Wednesday. Officers found a man with gunshot wounds inside the house and rushed him to the hospital, where he was asked who might have wanted to hurt him. Before he died, he said, “Possibly my ex-wife,” the Bradenton Herald reports. Investigators said she was seen earlier that day stealing a delivery order from a Panera Bread and taking it to the victim’s house. A Manatee County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson said, “When this victim opened the door, the suspect started to fire immediately,” KBTX3 reports. The victim’s 15-year-old daughter heard the shooting and saw a Honda Odyssey fleeing the scene, a model Avalon owns. Cops tracked it home, where officers saw her take bleach and rags to her vehicle. When they approached and asked if they could speak with her about her ex-husband, she replied, “Which one?” They then ordered a welfare check on her other ex-husband’s home in Tampa, where they found him shot dead, his back door showing signs of forced entry. Avalon has been charged with second-degree murder and is being held in Citrus County. However, prosecutors are said to be considering a charge of first-degree murder and seeking the death penalty.
