A Georgia couple went live on Facebook to argue. By the end of the day, neither of them was alive

On a June evening, followers of Zaria Khadejah Carr, a 27-year-old mother and influencer from Twin City, Georgia, joined a messy livestream of her and her husband, thinking it was online drama. But they were actually witnessing the influencer’s final moments.

On June 14, 2025, Zaria, a.k.a Duchess Dior, went live on Facebook with her husband, Shamarcus Jameal “The Frenchman” Carr, a 36-year-old well-known French bulldog breeder with over 44,000 followers. The couple had built a perfect image of success on social media: Posing together in matching outfits, recording their two young children, and establishing a shared business. But that night, the perfect picture cracked on camera.

For nearly an hour on Saturday, they aired their marital breakdown to hundreds of viewers. They accused each other of cheating, and even of infecting the other with an incurable STD. But the argument soon spiraled from embarrassment to danger. Holding a knife, Shamarcus looked at the camera and said, “This is the type of bitch that gets beat.” Zaria nervously laughed, asking, “What, you about to stab me?”

Shamarcus’ reply should’ve served as enough warning. He said, “If I get off this live, you ain’t gonna make it out the door.” Sadly, He wasn’t joking, and moments later, the livestream cut off. The couple then went live for the last time, where Zaria mentioned someone named “Oody” to her husband. As he demanded the phone back, he threatened her, saying, “I swear you’ll die.”

Zaria clapped back, asking him, “I gotta die about that?” before turning to the camera and telling her viewers, “I ain’t willing to die about it so y’all won’t know that tea right now.” The live then ended, and while viewers were panicking, Zaria came online at around 6:00 p.m. and posted a cryptic message: “I really don’t know what to do, but I need help before I lose my life or freedom! My kids need me!”

Three hours later, the police arrived at their home after receiving a domestic disturbance call, but it was too late. Zaria was found unconscious, severely wounded, and was pronounced dead at the scene. But Shamarcus was nowhere to be found in the house. He had fled in Zaria’s black 2021 Dodge Challenger, prompting a statewide alert for the vehicle.

At around 11 p.m., deputies spotted the car 80 miles south of Twin City, in Wayne County, and began chasing the killer. When the police were closing in, Shamarcus turned a gun on himself and shot. He was rushed to the hospital but ultimately died from his self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The couple, sharing two children, had become minor celebrities in their community, sharing every milestone online. But the same audience that watched them celebrate anniversaries became witness to their violent end.

What unfolded on Facebook that evening wasn’t entertainment. It was evidence. When news broke of their deaths, comments flooded social media: “Whoa. Single ain’t so bad,” while another nodded, “Singleness is looking better every day.”
