A community in Georgia reeled in horror when a tragic incident claimed a 30-year-old dad, Telvin Osborne, in a gunshot on a Sunday morning. The lady involved in this tragic incident? His girlfriend, Hannah Cobb, who is 28 years old. But just exactly what happened on this fateful night? Was it an accident, or is there another narrative here?
The incident happened on a Sunday morning, around 5:45 AM, in a Four Road home in Hephzibah. Deputies responded to a report of a shot being fired. Upon arriving, they found Osborne wounded in his chest by a gunshot. He was taken to hospital, but it was too late, and it was declared dead.
Shockingly, it was Cobb herself who contacted law enforcement right after the shooting. She was initially cooperative with deputies and shared her version of what happened. But just two days later, Cobb was arrested. The charge—felony involuntary manslaughter—suggests that the shooting might not have been intentional, but her actions were reckless enough to cost a life.
Hannah Cobb wasn’t just Osborne’s girlfriend; she’s also the mother of their child.The couple shares a child. Thankfully, the child wasn’t at home when the shooting happened. However, questions remain: Who is caring for the child now? And how will this tragic event shape the young one’s future?
According to investigators, Cobb admitted that she and Osborne had been out drinking that night. After returning home, they got into an argument. Cobb said that as she was checking her firearm—something she claimed they did together every night—the gun went off accidentally. The bullet struck Osborne in the chest.
But here’s where things get complicated. The police haven’t yet confirmed whether the shooting was truly an accident. The investigation is still ongoing. Was Cobb’s story the whole truth, or is there more that’s yet to come to light?
Telvin Osborne’s family is heartbroken—and they’re demanding answers. Mark Stevenson, Osborne’s cousin, took to Twitter to share his frustrations. He didn’t hold back.
“My cousin’s girlfriend Hannah Cobb killed him Sunday morning and is claiming it was an accident. Her dad is a cop, and we fear that might influence the case. But trust me, we’re going to get justice for Telvin.”
Stevenson’s accusations provide another source of complexity. Can personal connections of Cobb interfere in the investigation? The public is keeping a close eye on this case, awaiting a fair outcome.
The Sheriff of Burke is insisting a thorough investigation is underway. The investigation is on-going. Deputies have to be examining forensics, testimony, and surveillance tape, if there is any, which can lead us to the truth.
The Criminal Investigation Department is taking the lead on this case, carefully piecing together exactly what happened on this evening. One thing is for sure, however: The community is crying for answers—and for the truth.
Charges of involuntary manslaughter suggest officials believe Cobb didn’t intentionally kill Osborne. However, in this situation, her actions were so irresponsible, officials say, it led to his death. Drinking and gun usage, in a situation such as this following a fight, is a serious matter.
The details aren’t apparent. What exactly happened in this bedroom? Was there a gun carelessly manipulated in a fit of fury in a disagreement, or is there a more intentional motivation for it being pulled? Only evidence can provide an answer.
