An former Fort Hood soldier is found murdered in a Killeen, TX home Candance Boley, a 36-year-old woman and veteran of the Army and Marine Corps, was tragically murdered in her home in Killeen, Texas, on July 11, 2011. Her body was discovered by a neighbor who became concerned after noticing her door had been open for days and her dog was running loose. The initial call to 911 described her as a gunshot victim, but the exact cause of death was not publicly disclosed by the police.
Despite extensive investigations, no arrests have been made in connection
with Candance's murder. The case remains unsolved, and her mother, Terrie Boley, has taken it upon herself to raise awareness about her daughter's case and other unsolved murders in the area. Terrie manages a website and blog titled "Murdered in Killeen," where she documents new homicides and related criminal cases. She hopes that by keeping busy with this work, she can find some solace and perhaps bring attention to her daughter's case.

The Killeen Police Department and Bell County Crime Stoppers continue to seek information and tips from the public, offering cash rewards for information that leads to an arrest.
Candance's mother believes that her daughter's drug addiction may have played a role in her death, and that others have written off the case because of it. Despite the challenges, Terrie remains dedicated to seeking justice for her daughter and bringing closure to the family.
The case of Candance Boley is a tragic reminder of the importance of community vigilance and the need for justice in unsolved crimes. Her story continues to resonate with those who follow the efforts to solve her murder and bring peace to her family.
