A horrifying murder case out of Oregon is sending chills across the internet — especially after it was revealed the victim feared for her life weeks before she was killed.
A jury has found 33-year-old Bobby Alsup guilty on multiple charges, including second-degree murder, after prosecutors said he brutally killed Kaley Ann Snow — then tried to cover it up in a gruesome way.
According to officials, Snow died after being struck twice in the head with a hammer inside her own home. But what happened next made the case even more disturbing.
Prosecutors say Alsup hid her body in a shed on the property, leaving it there for days. Then, in an alleged attempt to destroy evidence, he returned and set the shed on fire.
Firefighters responding to the blaze made a grim discovery — Snow’s body inside.
But one of the most chilling details came from messages Snow sent before her death.
Weeks earlier, she reportedly texted a friend with a haunting warning: she believed the man renting a room in her home might try to kill her.
That man, investigators say, was Alsup.
Despite claiming he couldn’t make it to the house on the day of the murder, phone records later showed he was there for hours. Prosecutors also pointed to physical evidence — including traces of the victim’s blood on his clothing — and a digital trail that tied him directly to the scene.
The relationship between the two remains murky, though reports suggest there may have been a romantic connection. What is clear is that tensions had been building, with Snow questioning his unpaid rent just days before she was killed.
Alsup initially denied knowing anything about her disappearance. But after being briefly jailed in a separate incident involving another woman, investigators began connecting the dots.
His defense claimed he discovered Snow already dead and panicked — hiding her body out of fear he’d be blamed. Prosecutors flatly rejected that argument, saying the evidence showed he was responsible from start to finish.
In court, Snow’s mother described her daughter as vibrant, outgoing, and full of life.
Why would you rent a room to this loser, he looks like a criminal.
Exactly. He looks demonic.
