Monique Powell, 26, died of a gunshot wound on June 15, 2010, at her La Marque, Texas apartment. Police say the shooting occurred during a domestic disturbance in the apartment she shared with 24-year-old Kenneth Loftis; a struggle over a handgun reportedly led to Powell being shot in the chest. She was pronounced dead at Mainland Medical Center in Texas City, and the Galveston County Medical Examiner’s Office ruled the death a homicide.

Kenneth Loftis was arrested and charged with tampering with physical evidence and held on $150,000 bond. Authorities said the investigation was ongoing and that additional charges could be forthcoming. Powell was remembered by family as a beloved daughter, sister, and aunt. Few other case details are public at this time.
