On January 5, 2014, 45-year-old Melissa Ann Huber was found dead in her Somerville, Alabama home from an apparent gunshot wound. The investigation moved quickly from an unknown assailant to a family matter when law enforcement focused on her daughter, Kristina Kandis Huber, as the primary suspect.

Prosecutors at trial argued a motive tied to plans by Melissa’s parents to send Kristina to a mental health or drug rehabilitation facility. A Morgan County jury found Kristina Kandis Huber guilty of murdering her mother, bringing a legal resolution to the case while leaving the family and community with lasting emotional wounds.

If anyone knew Melissa or has information about the events surrounding January 5, 2014, please come forward.
