Fort Bend County Murder Mystery




Who killed 32 year-old Rosalyn Harmon and why? Police and neighbors want to know. She was found shot to death inside her Rosharon home about 10 miles southeast of Missouri City on Saturday.

"According to a neighbor, there were gunshots heard at the home at 11:30pm May 1st," said Chief Craig Brady, Fort Bend Co. Sheriff's Office. "That person heard a vehicle leave, but did not see a vehicle."

Francis Waterhouse is the neighbor called 911 after seeing Harmon's front door ajar.

"I saw the door had been kicked in and water was running from under the garage and out of the front door," said Waterhouse.

Police say a bullet had penetrated a water pipe.

"There was some evidence the house was ransacked 20 but there were many valuables left out at plain sight," said Chief Brady. "So robbery or theft does not appear to be the motive."

Neighbors and police describe the victim as a hardworking paralegal, who's also a divorce. They say she has a 10 year-old child who lives out of state with his biological father. They say she lived by herself and that the killer is someone she likely knew. Police say there appeared to be no sign of a struggle.

They say there are no suspects or persons of interest in this case. They are passing out flyers hoping to find more information.There is a $5,000 reward leading to an arrest.

Anyone with information is urged to call Fort Bend County Crime Stoppers at 281-342-TIPS. All calls are anonymous.

  1. I'm not sure if you're still with the news station, as I don't live in Texas any longer. Was wondering was anyone ever arrested for Rosalyn's murder.
