A man identified as Roger Bradford is charged with the murder of his wife, realtor Lisa Bradford, after she is found shot dead inside their home in Northern Virginia, according to police and reporting from multiple outlets. Bradford is arrested in Pennsylvania hours after the killing, after authorities locate him following the initial investigation.
The case involves first-degree murder charges and firearm-related allegations. Sources say the charges include first-degree murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, filed after police connect Bradford to the death of his 54-year-old wife, in a wealthy area of Virginia near Washington, D.C. Reporting also describes a multi-state effort to find him, with his arrest occurring outside Virginia, before he is brought into custody to face the allegations.
While outlets differ slightly in phrasing and emphasis—some focusing on the immediate circumstances of the home discovery and others highlighting the manhunt and interstate search—both accounts describe the same core timeline: a realtor wife is found shot dead, her husband is later arrested in another state, and prosecutors pursue murder and firearm charges.
