Deputies are investigating a possible murder-suicide in Paulding County.
The Sheriff’s Office says Brian Miller, 41, shot his wife Kara, 29, and 21-month-old baby Paxton before shooting himself. Police say they were all shot in the head with a handgun.
Family members said they spoke with them Friday, but had not heard from them all weekend. They asked the Sheriff’s Office to perform a welfare check.

Brian Miller’s daughter from a previous marriage spoke only with Channel 2 Action News about what happened. Ashley Miller says she can’t believe what deputies are saying about her dad.
“They're saying that my dad did it, but it doesn't sound like my dad to do something like that. I just want to make sure everybody knows he's not that kind of person,” Miller told Jaglois.

“That’s why I didn’t see it coming,” she said. “He's very church involved. He's very religious. He's a good dad and he didn't deserve something like this.”
Ashley Miller said she’s pregnant and if it’s a boy, she’ll name him after her father.
