Adrianna Taylor, a 23-year-old woman from Cleveland, was reported missing on Nov. 13, 2022. Her family said they hadn’t heard from her since late October, and she was living with her boyfriend in Pennsylvania at the time of her disappearance.
Tragically, Taylor was found dead on Thanksgiving night, Nov. 24, 2022. She had been buried in the backyard of her boyfriend’s sister’s home in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania. The medical examiner ruled Taylor’s death a homicide and said she had been killed by a gunshot wound to the head, according to CBS News.
Now Taylor’s boyfriend, 43-year-old Pittsburgh native Anthony Kennedy, is a suspect in her murder. After being sought by the police for days after they issued a warrant for his arrest for aggravated murder, he walked into the Allegheny County Police Department headquarters and turned himself in on Nov. 30, 2022. Accompanied by Blaine Jones, his defense lawyer, Kennedy was silent as he entered the police headquarters, reported ABC News.
Edgar Hoyle, a friend of Taylor’s, told TV station KDKA that he felt something was wrong with her relationship but never questioned her about it. He said, "I feel like this is something I should have talked to her about. I had a red flag. I didn't say anything cause I'm like, 'You're grown, it's your business. I'm not your father, I'm your friend.'"
