Everyone On That Property Had A Motive

Aug 20, 2026
The death of prominent Atlanta-area attorney Gary Farris began as a missing-person search on his family's sprawling Cherokee County property. Then his burned remains were discovered in a burn pile - and the investigation took a much darker turn. As detectives dug into the Gary Farris murder case, they uncovered a family divided by money, affairs, resentment, and accusations. With multiple people on the property potentially having a reason to want Gary dead, investigators had to determine who was telling the truth and what really happened in July 2018. In this episode of The Georgia Gazette's Behind the Headlines, we follow the investigation from Gary Farris' disappearance and the discovery of his remains through the evidence, suspects, trial, and conviction of Melody Farris. Who killed Gary Farris? What evidence led investigators to Melody Farris? And why did suspicion fall on more than one member of the Farris family? Go Behind the Headlines as we examine the evidence, competing accusations, and family secrets at the center of one of Georgia's most fascinating true crime cases.
