An Atlanta man killed his girlfriend a day after bonding out of jail.

Stephanie Riddle, a 35-year-old mother of five, is reported telling police, “If you don’t arrest him, he is going to kill me,” according to WFMY. She made that statement to police after Jerrell Berger showed up at her house as soon as he got out of jail. He wasn’t supposed to be there, and walked away when police arrived and was not arrested.
