CASSELBERRY -- Brand new video has been released in the gun range shooting case in Seminole County.

News 13 has obtained the surveillance pictures of the woman and her son just moments before they were shot.

Investigators said Marie Moore, 44, and her son, Mitchell 20, were taking target practice at the Shoot Straight Gun Range and Store on U.S. 17-92 Sunday afternoon.

That's when Marie came up from behind and shot Mitchell in the back of the head before taking her own life.

Investigators also said she never should have been there in the first place.

A police report released Monday said Marie was suicidal since a mental breakdown seven years ago, and at one point was banned from the gun range.

A motive for the killing remains a mystery, but friends of Marie told News 13 they believe she may have shot her son in some kind of effort to “protect him from the world.”

Family members didn't want to talk.


What the fuck is going on? Is it the economy?

If death isn't the end, then at least they will be together.

If death is the end, it doesn't matter anyway.

She was banned from being there since she was crazy, and had to rent a gun there too.

I wonder if the gun range will get in trouble?

criminally? doubtful. civil? they better start upping membership fees.

gun renting circumvents the standard forms, which I don't really like.

She was crazy...crazy like a fox. She knew she couldn't get a gun so she lured her son to a shooting range.

What the fuck is going on? Is it the economy?

Guns/ammo have been flying off the shelves at an unprecedented rate since november 5, 2008, while this is obviously an outlier to that, I think the correlation between the dramatic rise in these shootings around the country and the rise in gun purchases is pretty fucking clear. Economy probably has something to do w/ it tangentially since people are more depressed etc.
