An apparent custody dispute turned deadly when a man allegedly drove across the state and fatally shot the couple who had adopted his seven-year-old daughter, authorities said. Johnson is also a cousin of Trinette Lopez, according to family members. When deputies arrive on scene they found Christopher Lopez in the main living area with a gunshot wound to the face and Trinette Lopez near the kitchen. There was a history of dispute between the suspect and the victims, according to officials, who said Johnson had a prior criminal case involving the couple. According to court records from that case, Johnson threatened to kill Christopher Lopez and another family member after being denied access to his daughter without going through child protective services.
