The Benton County community is mourning the devastating loss of 40-year-old Charity Beallis and her 6-year-old twins, who were found deceased inside their family home just one day after a court hearing related to the parents’ ongoing divorce. The tragedy has left relatives, friends, and neighbors grieving a family remembered for their bright smiles, loving bond, and the joy the twins brought to everyone around them.

Deputies responded to the Beallis residence after family members raised concerns when they were unable to reach Charity. Upon entering the mansion, authorities discovered Charity and her young children deceased inside the home — a discovery that officials described as profoundly heartbreaking.

Charity had recently attended a divorce hearing with her husband, Dr. Randall Beallis, where joint custody of the twins was granted. This ruling followed months of legal conflict and emotional strain within the family. Earlier this year, Randall had been arrested after a domestic violence incident in March in which he was accused of choking Charity inside the home. He later pleaded guilty, received a one-year suspended sentence, and was ordered to pay more than $1,500 in court-related fees. Charity filed for divorce that same month, seeking full custody of the children as she tried to protect and rebuild her family’s future.

Investigators have not yet released further details about the circumstances inside the home or the findings of the ongoing investigation. The Benton County Sheriff’s Office and the coroner are continuing their work, and additional updates are expected as more information is confirmed.

Those who knew Charity remember her as a devoted mother whose life revolved around her children. Friends describe her twins as bright, kind, and full of life — inseparable siblings who brought joy to everyone who met them. The family’s sudden loss has left the community shaken, with many struggling to comprehend the tragedy that unfolded behind closed doors.

As loved ones gather to grieve, they are leaning on one another and honoring the memory of Charity and her beautiful children — a family whose bond, love, and spirit will never be forgotten.
