Barbara Allen Hill, 46, was found dead at her home on the 400 block of West Smithfield Terrace in Birmingham on May 5, 2009, the victim of fatal gunshot wounds in what was reported as a domestic assault. Investigators also found her husband, Larry Hill, at the scene with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. Authorities concluded the incident was a murder-suicide, naming Larry Hill as the primary suspect in Barbara’s killing; no arrests were made because the alleged perpetrator was deceased and the case is considered solved.

Barbara was a West End High School graduate from the class of 1981, worked as a medical assistant at Southview Medical Group, St. Vincent’s Hospital, and was studying for a Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Faulkner University. She was the mother of two daughters, AnTrice Alexander and La'Netrice Hill.
