Trouble, whose real name is Mariel Orr, died in a shooting at a Rockdale County apartment complex.

Investigators said they believe Orr and Jones did not know each prior to the shooting, but Jones knew Orr’s friend.
A domestic dispute with Jones and the woman led to the shooting, according to the sheriff’s office. Jones shot Orr once in the chest.
Deputies said they searched areas where Jones is known to hang out, but so far their search has turned up empty.
