Thersa Rena Horton Martin, 49, was found murdered in her Argillite, Kentucky home on June 8, 2022. A devout member of her community who managed the family business’s office and bookkeeping and cared for blue heeler dogs, she was discovered fatally shot and stabbed that Wednesday morning.

Investigators say the attack was premeditated and involved two juveniles. One was a close relative who conspired with another juvenile who brought a firearm to the residence. Both were arrested and held at the Boyd County Juvenile Detention Center; the relative faced a Murder-Domestic Violence charge and the accomplice faced a complicity to murder charge.

If anyone knew Thersa, her movements in the days before June 8, or has information about the two juveniles’ activities, please come forward.
