Barbara Lynn Barbie Knight was 19 when she was killed on May 9, 2014, at the family home on Josephine Drive in Harper, Texas. She was born May 27, 1994, in Lima, Ohio, and was the daughter of Edward Knight and Bobbie Jo Knight, with a sister named Holly Knight; she was also the granddaughter of Joseph Knight.

The death occurred in a double homicide that also claimed Barbara’s grandmother, Karen Knight, 59. Joseph C. Knight, 67, was charged with capital murder, surrendered to authorities at the residence, and was held at the Gillespie County Jail on $1 million bail. A rifle believed to be the weapon was recovered at the scene. Gillespie County deputies investigated with assistance from Texas Ranger Kevin Wright. Few details about a motive were released.

Barbara’s funeral was held May 16, 2014, at Peach Creek Baptist Church in New Caney, Texas, with interment at Rosewood Cemetery in Humble, Texas. Does anyone have information about the victims or the household that could help fill in what led to that night?
