Cynthia Diane Morris, 37, of Baytown, Texas, was one of three family members killed on November 8, 2016. Cynthia and her 13-year-old daughter Breanna Brooke Pavilicek were found in their Baytown home; investigators determined both Cynthia and Breanna died of gunshot wounds. A second daughter, 16-year-old Kirsten Nicole Fritch, was later found deceased in a wooded area in Texas City.

Cynthia was remembered as an honor student from Lee High School who studied Literature and English at Lee College and made jewelry and healing charms. A 21-year-old acquaintance of Kirsten, Jesse Dobbs, emerged as a person of interest and was charged in connection with Kirsten’s death; no charges have been filed in Cynthia and Breanna’s deaths.

The investigation into Cynthia Morris’s killing remains open. Anyone with information about Cynthia, Breanna, or Kirsten’s deaths is asked to come forward.
