A now 17-year-old girl who allegedly fatally shot her mother and stepfather in Georgia in February has turned herself in to police.

It was Sarah Grace Patrick’s stepsister, then a 5-year-old, who found her parents unresponsive in their home.

In the weeks and months following the crime, and as investigators searched for clues, Patrick made a series of grieving social media videos, adding fuel to the alleged cover-up.

According to reports, Sarah Grace Patrick was 16 at the time of the alleged shooting of 41-year-old Kristin Brock and 45-year-old James Brock. Her stepsister was 5.

On the night of February 20, 2025, police say Patrick allegedly fatally shot her parents while they were in their bedroom in their house in Carrollton, Georgia.

The 5-year-old discovered her slain parents and alerted Patrick, who called 911.

Immediately following the shooting, Patrick began denying any involvement.

She posted sorrowful messages for her mother on social media and gave an impassioned memorial during their funeral.

According to media reports, during the funeral, Patrick said of her mother and stepfather: “There’s nothing we can do to bring them back, we still have control over how we treat people.”

In other posts, we see an old video of her mother in a toy store, edited together with old clips of her stepfather. 

The video is captioned: “They don’t know it but a year from now, me and my five-year-old sister would find them wrongfully shot d*ad in our home and won’t get to watch me graduate high school, see me walk down the aisle and couldn’t even say goodbye.”

Patrick even allegedly contacted various true crime personalities to ask for help. 

According to the True Crime Mama website, Patrick reached out in a text saying: “They’re my parents, and out of no where a random Thursday night in Feb someone came in my house with me and my 5 year old sister and shot my parents brutally leaving them for me and my little sister to wake up to.”

She continued: “I feel like it’s important to shine light on it considering it’s still a [sic] open case.”

Still other social media posts show Patrick with a mascara-stained face as she tearfully asks the public for “prayers” and a break for healing.

On Mother’s Day this year, Patrick posted pictures of herself as a young girl together with her mother with the caption “.. my ultimate inspiration comes from my best friend.”

During a press conference to announce Patrick’s arrest, Ashley Hulsey, a spokesperson for the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office in Georgia, explained that Patrick turned herself in after being made aware that there was an arrest warrant out for her.

Media reports that she was driven to the police station by her birth father.

Hulsey explained that from the moment the incident took place, everyone was a suspect. 

But after several months of investigation, Hulsey said, it became clear that Patrick was the main suspect due to so much overwhelming evidence.

As to a motive on why Patrick took the lives of 41-year-old Kristin Brock and 45-year-old James Brock, “We are still working with her diligently,” Hulsey said. 

When asked about investigations into other family members who may have aided or abetted Patrick, she said that “everybody we talked to through the course of the investigation who are family members, have been nothing but cooperative.”

Hulsey said, “We don’t know what goes through the mind of a child who wants to harm their parents.” She continued: “She’s 17. She’s kind of been out on her own. She’s lived with different family members and moved all over the place.”

Hulsey also discussed James’ ongoing health conditions: “According to his family, he had a lot of heart trouble. I believe he may have been waiting on a heart transplant at some point,” Hulsey said.

The spokesperson said that the biggest ‘victim’ was the 6-year-old child who won’t see her parents again.

“To me, she is probably the saddest victim in all this,” said Ashley Hulsey, a spokesperson for the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office.
