Anjelica Marie Ramey, a 27-year-old woman from Dayton, Ohio, tragically passed away on January 11, 2021. She was born on May 26, 1993, to James Ramey and Geneva Hamilton. Anjelica was a mother of five children: Jennifer, Bonnie, Dominic, Connor, and Stella. She was also survived by her siblings, her mother, and her grandmother.
The circumstances surrounding Anjelica's death were initially reported as an accidental shooting by her fiancé, Kendall Lee Hock.
Hock claimed that Anjelica accidentally shot herself while cleaning their home. However, an investigation and autopsy revealed that Hock had actually shot Anjelica. At the time of her death, Anjelica was in the very early stages of pregnancy.
Kendall Lee Hock, who was 25 years old at the time, was arrested on January 11, 2021, and later indicted on multiple charges, including murder. He pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter with a three-year firearm specification and having weapons while under disability. In May 2022, Hock was sentenced to 14 years in prison for his role in Anjelica's death.
The case drew significant attention due to the initial misleading report and the subsequent uncovering of the truth. The Montgomery County Prosecutor's Office played a crucial role in ensuring that justice was served for Anjelica and her family.
Anjelica Ramey's death was a tragic event that highlighted the importance of thorough investigations and the pursuit of justice. Her memory lives on through her children and the love of her family and friends.
