On October 29, 2014, 22-year-old culinary student Nancy Worrell was shot and killed inside an east Denver apartment on South Parker Road. She was at the French Quarter apartments with 19-year-old Amanda Anders when an argument between them and Jose King escalated to gunfire. Responding officers found both women dead from gunshot wounds.

Jose King, identified as Amanda Anders’ roommate, fled after the shooting but was arrested a short time later by Castle Rock police. After his arrest he told an officer he had done a bad thing and later told detectives he had retrieved a handgun from his bedroom, shot both women, then briefly returned to the apartment to get his keys before leaving for his parents’ home in Castle Rock. In December 2015 a Denver jury found King guilty on two counts of first-degree murder.

Nancy was remembered by family as bubbly and happy and had recently moved to Denver to begin culinary school. Does anyone have information about Nancy’s life in Denver or knew her while she was starting school?
