Leah Corken, an 83-year-old woman, died on August 19, 2016, in her apartment at The Tradition-Prestonwood, an independent living community in Dallas. Her body was found on the living room floor; staff noted her freshly styled hair was a mess, makeup was smudged on her bedroom pillow, and her wedding ring was missing. Family members questioned the suddenness of the death because she had appeared her usual self the night before.

Investigators later linked Leah’s death to a wider probe after the March 2018 attack on 91-year-old Mary Annis Bartel, who survived an attempted smothering and whose assailant was arrested. Authorities subsequently charged Billy Chemirmir with capital murder in the deaths of 18 women, including Leah Corken, alleging many victims were killed at independent living communities and that some deaths had initially been ruled natural. Leah’s family joined others in alleging the community failed on security and allowed the killer access.

Did anyone know Leah at The Tradition-Prestonwood or notice anything unusual on that floor in summer 2016?
