Police Charge Three People With Murder Of Salyersville Woman
Even without a body state police have arrested three people on suspicion of the murder of a Salyersville woman who has been missing since Dec. 23. Police arrested 42 year old Don Reed; 41 year old Paul Arnett; and 40 year old Linda Risner charging all of them with the murder of 28 year old Brandy Rowe of Salyersville. Even without the body, police “have discovered enough evidence to substantiate a charge of murder,” according to a statement from Trooper Elliott Gollihue, an acting spokesman for the Pikeville post of the Kentucky State Police. An acquaintance of Rowe’s contacted the Magoffin County sheriff’s office Monday to report that she had been shot and her body dumped near a rural area according to police. Searchers in Magoffin County have still yet to find Rowe’s body. Rowe was last seen two days before Christmas, when she left a Magoffin County home to go for a ride with some people she knew, police said. The group allegedly was headed to a rural area near the Magoffin-Breathitt county line.
