While we rely on most officers to protect us from harm, one federal enforcement officers is on trial for murder. Michael Abrah Ntiamoah, 32, is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency at the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport that has been accused of shooting and killing his wife and her boyfriend.

He is currently in the Cobb County Jail without bond after police found the bodies of his estranged wife, Fatoumata Ntiamoah, 27, and her boyfriend Mohamed Zaine, 32.

Officer Joe Hernandez reported that her body was found on a driveway while Zaine's was discovered inside the house they shared in Bexley Place. Neighbors report hearing more than thirty shots and observing Ntiamoah chase his wife down the street.

At his first hearing Ntiamoah was denied bond and also charged with burglary and aggravated assault. Records show that he has been a resident of Cobb County since 2007 after moving from New Jersey.
