Twila Compaore

Murdered

On April 11, 2008, the body of 37-year-old Twila Compaore was found inside a trash can in Las Vegas, Nevada. The gruesome discovery led to a lengthy investigation. Months later, in December 2008, police arrested a man suspected of being involved in her murder. Compaore’s death was a part of a broader investigation into other violent crimes in the area. Although there were leads, the case took time to unravel as authorities sought justice for the victim and her family.
