On May 10, 2025, Robert Dupree Sr., a 62-year-old man from King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, was found shot dead in his bed. Authorities identified his wife, 57-year-old Tonya Dupree, as the suspect in what they characterized as a murder-suicide. Earlier that morning, Tonya Dupree allegedly pointed a gun at her adult son’s head outside his workplace at a FedEx warehouse. The son managed to wrestle the firearm away before Tonya fled the scene.
Shortly after, police conducted a welfare check at the Dupree home, where they discovered Robert Dupree Sr., 62, deceased. Less than an hour later, authorities found Tonya Dupree’s body floating in the Schuylkill River. Officials are investigating the incident as a murder-suicide and attempted murder, though the motive remains unclear. Friends and family have expressed grief over Robert’s passing, remembering him as a retired U.S. Army soldier and a beloved friend.
