Family Demands Answers: Why Isn’t the Man Accused of Killing Their Loved One in Jail?

Share news:

A family in Gwinnett County is heartbroken and demanding answers after discovering that the man accused of killing their loved one is not behind bars—eight months after the tragic crime.

Back in July, 61-year-old Johnita Weaver was shot and killed at a home on Glen Summit Lane in Snellville. Investigators say Allen Dumas pulled the trigger before attempting to take his own life. He survived, but now, months later, he’s nowhere to be found in jail records.

Dumas was initially charged with felony murder and aggravated assault. But here’s where things get confusing—Gwinnett County jail records don’t show him in custody, and court records don’t indicate that he’s out on bond either. His exact medical condition is also unclear.

Johnita’s brother, Greg Weaver, is speaking out, frustrated and desperate for justice. Holding a picture of his sister outside the courthouse, he made his feelings known.

“This guy needs to be in the custody of the Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Department,” he said. “She wanted him to leave, and I guess he didn’t want to leave. So he took it upon himself to kill my sister.”

The Gwinnett County District Attorney’s Office confirmed that Dumas is not in jail but refused to share where he is or what his current condition is. They explained that the case is still open and has not yet been indicted.

So what happens next? That’s still uncertain. There’s no clear timeline for an indictment, and attempts to reach Dumas’ attorney have gone unanswered.

Meanwhile, Greg Weaver isn’t giving up. He says he’ll keep pushing for justice.

“Gwinnett County needs to do the right thing,” he said. “Find somewhere for this guy to be in your custody until he’s able to stand trial.”
