Arkansas woman and children found dead at mansion home day after final divorce hearing with estranged husband
Share and Follow

Tragedy struck a family in Bonanza, Arkansas, when Charity Beallis, 40, and her two children were discovered dead in their mansion. The grim discovery was made on December 3 during a welfare check, with all three found with gunshot wounds. Notably, this incident occurred just a day after the final divorce hearing between Charity and her estranged husband, Randall Beallis, as reported by local news outlet, 5 News.

In an unsettling twist, Charity had made a cryptic post on Facebook months prior to the incident, which has drawn significant attention in light of the tragic events. This revelation adds another layer of complexity to the already heartbreaking situation.

The couple’s troubled relationship had been public knowledge, with Randall Beallis facing legal troubles earlier in the year. On February 16, 2025, he was accused of choking Charity. Initially charged with aggravated assault on a family member, third-degree domestic battery, and two counts of third-degree endangering the welfare of a minor, Randall ultimately pled guilty to a lesser charge of third-degree battery in October. The court handed down a one-year suspended sentence and issued a no-contact order, which Charity herself approved.

Charity had filed for divorce in March, a decision that now, in hindsight, seems to have been a pivotal point in a tumultuous relationship. The tragic end to the Beallis family’s story serves as a stark reminder of the complexities and potential dangers involved in domestic disputes.

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

In August, months after Randall was accused of choking Charity, she made a cryptic Facebook post, sharing screenshots to an article titled “If a partner has ever strangled you, they will likely kill you.”

“If a woman’s partner has ever strangled her, even once, her risk of being murdered by that same partner with a gun shoots up 750% compared to a woman who has never been strangled,” a Daily Press article shared by Charity states.

The wife and mother added a series of hashtags in the comment section of the post, including “#StopCorruption,” #JusticeForVictims,” #AccountabilityNow,” “#SystemicFailure” and more.

According to the outlet, Charity also commented on a 5 News article in August, writing, “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.”

The Sebastian County Sheriff’s Office wrote in an update on Tuesday that the United States Secret Service and Homeland Security Investigations are now among the agencies involved in the investigation.

A suspect has not been named, deputies added, but they said 12 search warrants are in progress and six have been served.

According to 40/29 News, deputies said Randall, a doctor in Arkansas, was not 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.

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

Fox News Digital reached out to Randall’s attorney for comment.
