Update on the Disappearance of Kayla Kelley
For Immediate Release:
The Collin County Sheriff’s Office has confirmed the female found buried in a Grand Prairie field on Wednesday, January 18 as missing 33-year-old Kayla Kelley from McKinney. Early Thursday afternoon the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the remains as Ms. Kelley.
Ocastor Ferguson, (aka/Kevin Brown), has been in custody at the Collin County Detention Center since January 14 on charges of kidnapping Ms. Kelley. On January 18, the Frisco Fire Marshall’s Office filed charges against Ferguson for arson involving Ms. Kelley’s vehicle. Since the recovery of Ms. Kelley, the Collin County Sheriff’s Office is working with the Collin County District Attorney’s office to determine what additional charges will be brought against Ocastor Ferguson.
Collin County Sheriff Jim Skinner stated, “While we desperately hoped for a different outcome, I’m grateful for the dogged determination of my deputies and our Texas Rangers in locating Ms. Kelley. As this is an ongoing homicide investigation, details outside what may be contained within an investigator’s search or arrest affidavit will not yet be released.”
