In a quiet home in Fallon, Nevada, the life of 48-year-old Sean Erin Green, a White male, was brought to a sudden and violent end on the night of March 25, 2020. When law enforcement arrived at the scene, they discovered Green with five bullet wounds. The investigation that followed would unravel a story of a complex romantic entanglement that ultimately led to his death.
At the center of the investigation were Robert Shannon Collins Jr. and Torri Anne Gibbs.
It was revealed that both Green and Collins were involved in a romantic relationship with Gibbs. On that fateful night, Collins went to Green's home around 11:00 p.m. to confront him. This confrontation escalated, resulting in Collins shooting Green multiple times. The handgun used in the killing was never recovered by the authorities.
Both Collins and Gibbs were eventually arrested and faced multiple charges. Collins was initially charged with first-degree felony murder with the use of a firearm, conspiracy to commit murder, burglary with a firearm, discharging a firearm at or into an occupied structure, and destroying or concealing evidence. He later pled guilty to involuntary manslaughter and destroying or concealing evidence. For these crimes, he was sentenced to 16-48 months in the Nevada State Prison for involuntary manslaughter and 241 days in the Churchill County Jail for destroying or concealing evidence, to be served consecutively.
Torri Anne Gibbs was initially charged with being a principal to first-degree felony murder with the use of a firearm, conspiracy to commit murder, principal to discharging a firearm at or into an occupied structure, and destroying or concealing evidence. The criminal complaint stated that she had encouraged or induced Collins to kill Green. Evidence from her cell phone showed she was circling Green's home before the shooting. She ultimately pleaded to charges of accessory to manslaughter and destroying or concealing evidence. For her role, Gibbs was sentenced to 16-48 months in the Nevada State Prison for accessory to manslaughter and 152 days in the Churchill County Jail for destroying or concealing evidence, also to be served consecutively.
