Kristian Bailey was a 31-year-old mother of two from Rowlett, Texas who was found fatally shot in Mount Olive, Mississippi, after what began as a reported kidnapping. On August 28, 2019, co-worker 37-year-old Brian Douglas Allen picked Bailey up in a company truck, saying they were going to a job in Arlington, Texas. Bailey’s family grew worried when she failed to pick up her sons later that day and could not be reached.

The company located the truck in Mississippi and remotely disabled it. Family members later spoke with both Bailey and Allen and heard shouting. Deputies responding to reports of gunfire encountered Allen, who fired at them, then stole a patrol car and fled before being captured about six hours later. Bailey’s body was discovered in the front yard of a home; she had been fatally shot.

Allen was arrested and charged with first-degree murder, attempted murder, shooting into an occupied dwelling, theft of a motor vehicle, and two counts of possession of a firearm by a felon; bail was set at $2.25 million. Family members said Bailey and Allen were co-workers; Bailey was planning to marry her boyfriend, Nate Baldwin.

Did anyone in the Mount Olive area see the company truck or hear anything the night of August 28, 2019?
