A Louisiana pastor, Danny Prenell Jr, 25, is accused of sh%oting his wife, Gabrielle Prenell, 27, in front of their three children at a Hampton Inn hotel, McComb Police Chief Juan Cloy said.
It is reported that he turned the g¥n on himself on Wednesday around 3pm. Two days before the tragic incident, Danny and posted on his Facebook page. He appeared to share with his wife, a photo of the two of them along with their three young children. He tagged the location as Hampton Inn & Suites McComb in Mississippi, where the sh%oting occurred.
‘I may not be a perfect man, but I’ll always be a family man,’ stated the post, along with the hashtags #HusbandFatherPastor and #FlawedYetFavored.
Gabrielle Prenell was airlifted from Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center in McComb to the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC) in Jackson. Authorities said she was sh%t in the abdomen and in the arm.
However, Danny Prenell is in stable condition at Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center. Once he is released from the hospital, police said he would be charged with several felonies. Police said they’re investigating the incident as a domestic v#ol£nc£ incident. Their children are now under the custody of Child Protective Services.
Danny, a pastor at Bright Morning Star Missionary Baptist Church, posted often on Facebook about self-growth. “At the age of 25, I often hear that I’m far beyond my years. However, I never get satisfied with where I am….I’m constantly looking for more,” he wrote on April 16.
“People with small minds will keep you locked up into what can fit into their heads. The God I serve doesn’t have a limit, and I’m staying faithful because I know my cup shall run over.’ And the week prior to that, Danny posted on his wife’s birthday faking her ‘my queen’ and ‘the woman that I love and owe my life to’.
