On the morning of August 15, 2016, 45-year-old Brenda Kolbet was shot dead in her Spokane Valley home on South Michigan Road while securing her 7-year-old son in the driveway. A black Dodge Dart pulled up and blocked her vehicle; the driver was identified as her estranged ex-boyfriend, Gilberto Delgado. An argument followed, Brenda ran into the house and Delgado pursued her.

Gunfire was heard and the boy, who had been watching from the car, entered the home and found Brenda and her brother, 45-year-old Daniel Kenison, both suffering fatal gunshot wounds. The child used Kenison’s phone to call 911 and identified Delgado as the attacker. Deputies found Brenda deceased from multiple gunshot wounds and Kenison with a gunshot wound to the abdomen; Delgado had fled but was arrested the next day in Blackfoot, Idaho and later returned to Washington to face charges.

Was anyone in Spokane Valley familiar with Brenda or her family and willing to share what they know about that morning or the people involved?
