The identity of the woman who was killed inside a residence in west Abilene has been released.
Friends and family members say Kendra Keppler is the victim of an apparent homicide that happened on the 3900 block of Whittier Street. She leaves six children behind, according to a family member.
Her body was found around 6:00 p.m. Wednesday evening.
The Abilene Police Department has not released any details surrounding Keppler's death, but they did confirm they're moving forward with a homicide investigation.
Officers wore hazmat suits as they worked the scene. Police say Keppler's body was inside the residence for days before it was found.
The police have not said much about this murder, but I'm hoping this will be resolved quickly.
