TL;DR Summary

Former Virginia lieutenant governor Justin Fairfax killed his wife Cerina Fairfax and then shot himself at their Annandale home during an ongoing divorce dispute, after a 911 call from one of their teenage children shortly after midnight. The couple were living together amid dissolution proceedings, and police noted Fairfax’s previous 2019 sexual assault allegations had derailed his political career; a January accusation Fairfax made against Cerina was later deemed unfounded by police after reviewing footage.
