My grandparents took Kathy’s kids in for years (otherwise they would have been sent back to Mexico) . This break my heart since they had moved back to Orlando about 2 years ago, into their grandmother’s house. I know her little boy is devastated even though he didn’t get to see his mother too much (I’m sure the little girl is too). It is ashamed that someone could possibly murder someone, but the worst part is now her kids have to suffer even more even after she had pretty much abandoned them for years. I hope the suspect is found and pays for the loss of our “cousins’ mother”.
I am very up set about this i new her for 20 yr is not just that she was murde but they way she was found The children suffer but at least they are with there father and grandmother and they have pleanty of family to love them
it is a shame for her to have goten murder i hope they find the person that did this. I knew her for over 21 yr .The children are the ones that will be suffuring but at least they are with there father and grandmother and the have plenty of family to help the through this
I am wondering if this and the Michelle Parker case could be in any way connected. Both have children and apprently the killer didn’t care about this precious woman. I wonder if she went missing for any period of time before she met her fate. Since the grandmother in that case also kept the children, perhaps police should focus on any vacant homes in that area. They may find Michelle still alive in one of them since this woman was found in the yard of one. perhaps she tried to escape her killer. Thye didn’t say how she died or if she was raped.
