Fannie Rose Houck, 63, was found dead April 9, 2018, on County Road 711 north of State Road 50 in Webster, Florida, with clear signs of violence. She had recently moved to the Tampa Bay area from Massachusetts and was described as having light auburn hair, light brown eyes, and wearing a black unitard when she died. Investigators determined the death to be a homicide, caused by a single gunshot wound to the back of her head, described as execution-style.

Detectives used cellular phone data to trace Houck’s last known movements and placed her near Stanley Tarrand, 40, who had been released from prison in November 2017 after serving 23 years for a 1993 murder in Sumter County. Tarrand was arrested April 12, 2018, in Clermont; authorities found a firearm in his vehicle that they believed was used in the killing, and he admitted to shooting Houck. He was charged with first-degree murder and held without bond. The motive has not been identified.

If anyone knew Fannie Houck, saw her on April 9, 2018, or has information about her movements that day, please share what is known.
