On March 4, 2023, Kinamore was found fatally shot in her home just hours before her scheduled labor induction. Her unborn child also died. Her 6-year-old son discovered her body and called his grandmother, saying, “My mommy has been shot.”

Prosecutors allege Kayvon Warren (30), the father of Kinamore’s unborn child, conspired with Robert Ervin (20) and Lamar Morris Suggs (22) to kill her after she refused to terminate the pregnancy. Investigators say Warren was facing financial trouble and had recently rekindled a relationship with his ex-girlfriend, adding another layer of betrayal to the case.

All three face two counts of murder. Warren and Ervin were arrested in August 2025 and are being held on $600,000 bonds; Suggs will be arraigned later. Defense attorneys deny Warren wanted the pregnancy terminated, claiming he “wanted the child.”

Although arrests have been made, the investigation remains ongoing. Anyone with information is urged to contact the Colerain Township Police Department’s Criminal Investigative Unit at 513-321-2677.

Olivia Matthews, 32, an award-winning playwright and screenwriter, was found dead after a fire tore through her Smyrna, Georgia apartment on September 3, 2025. Authorities have confirmed the blaze was intentionally set and are treating the case as a homicide.

Investigators revealed chilling details: Matthews sustained injuries inconsistent with the fire, suggesting foul play before the blaze began. Even more alarming, two security cameras near her apartment were removed or disabled on the same day as the fire. Neighbors reported that Ring doorbell cameras from nearby units were ripped off just hours before the incident, eliminating crucial surveillance footage that could have identified the suspect.

Police also disclosed that a suspicious 911 call months earlier reported a man lurking near Matthews’ apartment, peering through windows. Witnesses on the night of the fire recalled hearing someone attempt to open a sliding door, followed by hurried footsteps descending the stairs.
