Prayer Blog - 6/30/2008

HTB's ex-wife and the mother of his children was murdered by the man she later married sometime last week in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. The two were last seen on Tuesday morning. Today, the incident was officially ruled a murder-suicice. Keep this family and all involved in your prayers.

The man evidently served as a juror in the infamous O.J. Simpson case and as such has received a modicum of national media coverage. Here is a brief newspaper article about the incident:

HATTIESBURG, Miss. -- The death of a Hattiesburg couple found last week in their home has been officially ruled a murder-suicide.

Forrest County Coroner Butch Benedict said Tracy Kennedy shot his wife Judith Kennedy in the head first and then he shot himself in the head.

Benedict said Monday that the autopsy results didn't indicate how long the bodies went unnoticed.

Forrest County Chief Deputy Coroner Tommy Fedrick said he thought the Kennedys' bodies had remained inside their home for about two days.

Police found the bodies of 66-year-old Tracy Kennedy and 68-year-old Judith Kennedy around midnight Thursday.
