Officials: Woman's death ruled accidental

FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. (FOX 5 Atlanta) - Forsyth County deputies say what started as a football mom's sleepover in a Woodlet Court home ended in heartbreak and tragedy. Officials released the 911 call in the death of Tamla Horsford on Wednesday.

Investigators said Horsford, a mother of five, fell to her death.

"We all were drinking and she was on the balcony, now she is face down,” the caller stated to the 911 operator.

Rumors have swarmed on social media about what happened to Horsford during that adult sleepover. But Wednesday, investigators said they believe the cause of death was accidental. The Forsyth County Sheriff's Office said after an exhaustive 4-month investigation, they consider the case closed.

Forsyth County Sheriff's Office Major Joe Perkins said Tamla was on the balcony by herself when she fell, while the others at the party had gone to bed. The major said there was no evidence of foul play.

The sheriff's department confirmed the county fired a pre-trial officer who was at the party for accessing personal information on five people and using his position to get confidential files in the death investigation. The major said Jose Barrera's behavior was inappropriate but not a crime.
