Families speak out after a Simpson County sheriff's deputy shoots and kills his ex-girlfriend in her driveway early October 5th.

Kentucky State Police say a murder warrant has been issued for 41-year-old Deputy Randall Creek.

Officials say Creek shot and killed 46-year-old Debbie Rediess at her home in Smith's Grove.

Creek is now on the run as police continue a state-wide manhunt.

Daniel Kemp spoke with the families of both Rediess and Creek.

It's something neighbors of Randall Creek, and the families of both Creek and Debbie Rediess say they never expected.

Now, Rediess' sons are speaking out, as well as the son of Creek, as all three try to start picking up the pieces a tragedy has caused.

"She was in bed getting ready to get up for church when he showed up. That's when everything happened," said John Rediess, the son of Debbie Rediess.

Debbie Rediess--gunned down at her own home.

Now her family's world has been turned upside down by the tragedy.

"Nobody ever met her that didn't like her. She had more heart than most people ever would," John Rediess assured.

"She loved everybody. She would do anything for anybody. That's what she lived for--her family," added Dustin Rediess, John's brother.

Now, not only are Rediess' two sons in shock, but Randall Creek's son is having to deal with it too.

"He told me what he did and pretty much just said goodbye and that he loved me," said Andre Creek, the son of Randall Creek..

Andre Creek hasn't spoken to his father since the day of the shooting.

"You wake up in the morning to your dad saying, 'Bye,' for the last time, somebody who loved you so much," Andre Creek said.

While he's hurting, Andre Creek says it's not near the pain being felt by the Rediess family.

"People keep telling me they're praying for me. It's so much harder on them than it is me."

And as both families try to figure out how to move on, Debbie Rediess'' sons just want their mother remembered for what she was.

"My mom she was a great woman. It's a great loss to anybody. It's a great loss to us," John Rediess said.

State police tell us they're still searching in the Louisville Metro area for Creek.

KSP says even if he's not there, it's likely he's left some type of evidence that will help them with their search.
