For months, Keli's abusive ex-boyfriend was escalating in his aggressive behavior toward her. He showed up at her home uninvited, kidnapped the son they shared, and sent threatening messages. However, no one thought he would kill Keli or his son, but in the early morning hours of June 6th, 2021 that's exactly what he did. Keli's parents, Robert (aka Jake) and Renata, recall the night their daughter and grandson were killed. Renata received a call from the killer saying, "I just killed your f****king daughter and Keli's middle son, Dio, witnessed his mother being killed.

Keli's family has set up a foundation to support victims of domestic violence. You can visit the website here: kelibrixxfoundation.org.
