A teacher and mother of two, Jasmyn Lambert, was tragically killed in her own home in Dallas, Georgia, by her estranged husband on the morning of October 28, 2023.
The devastating event unfolded in two stages, beginning with the perpetrator, 42-year-old Tyron Lambert, breaking into Jasmyn’s residence around midnight. He forcefully entered through the backdoor and threatened the occupants with a gun. The police were called, but Tyron Lambert managed to leave before they arrived.
The conflict escalated when Lambert returned to the Dallas, Georgia, house at about 7:15 a.m., leading to another urgent call to the authorities. As the officers neared the residence, they were greeted by the echo of gunshots. Inside, they found 37-year-old Jasmyn Lambert grievously injured. Despite rapid emergency care and transportation to the hospital, she died from her injuries.
Lambert attempted to escape, but was subdued and detained by police after a short scuffle. He is now in custody at the Paulding County Jail, facing numerous charges including murder and criminal trespass.
The impact of Jasmyn Lambert’s death resonates through the Cobb County, Georgia community and deeply within Still Elementary School, where she was a beloved figure. The local school district has voiced their profound loss, recognizing Jasmyn for her warm spirit and the lasting impression she made on her students and colleagues alike.
