In a tragic turn of events, a mother and her two children were discovered shot to death in their opulent Arkansas home, just a day after a court hearing finalized her divorce. This horrific incident has sent shockwaves through the tight-knit community of Bonanza, Arkansas.

The Sebastian County Sheriff’s Office reported that 40-year-old Charity Beallis and her children were found with fatal gunshot wounds following a welfare check on December 3rd. This devastating discovery came on the heels of the finalization of her divorce from her estranged husband, Randall, as reported by 5 News.

Earlier this year, Charity had expressed grave concerns about her safety. In 2025, she confided in Republican Arkansas Senator Terry Rice, sharing her fears not only for her own life but also for the lives of her children.

Randall Beallis, a practicing doctor in Arkansas, had been arrested in February of 2025 after allegedly assaulting Charity. The charges included aggravated assault on a family member, third-degree domestic battery, and two counts of endangering the welfare of a minor. However, in a plea deal reached in October, he pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of third-degree battery.

Charity had officially initiated divorce proceedings in March, seeking to end her marriage with Randall. Despite the tumultuous history, authorities stated as of Friday that Randall was not considered a suspect in the tragic deaths, according to 40/29 News.

According to 40/29 News, deputies said Randall, who is a doctor in Arkansas, wasn’t a suspect as of Friday.

Randall’s attorney told the outlet his client has been cooperative with law enforcement and fully supports the Sebastian County Sheriff’s Office investigation.

He received a one-year suspended sentence and was given a no-contact order with his wife or any of her family members, which Charity approved of.

Charity made a comment on a 5 News article in August, where she wrote, “I’m living this battle right now. I am the victim, yet I’ve been treated like the problem while the criminal — a local doctor — is being shielded by the very system that’s supposed to protect us.”

“I’ve tried to reach Prosecuting Attorney … but he won’t even accept a letter from me. My voice, as the victim, has been shut out,” Charity wrote. “This is not just about me — this is about a system that protects offenders and rejects victims. Lives are at stake, including the lives of young children.”

Charity filed for divorce shortly after her husband was arrested in February. The divorce records indicate the two got married in 2015 and stopped living together in February.

After Charity died, on Dec. 4, Randall’s attorney filed a motion to dismiss the divorce case. Charity was seeking full custody of the children.

“Search warrants have been written and executed with more search warrants anticipated during the investigation. Interviews have taken place with more anticipated,” the sheriff’s office wrote.
