It’s a story that’s rocked Southeast Kentucky.

According to the Laurel County Sheriff’s Office, 18-year-old Jadeance Hale and 19-year-old Lila Asher were found dead in a car along with 21-year-old James Priddy after a pursuit that ended on Kentucky 312.

Officials believe it was a double murder su***de.

My coworker Maggie Rickerby spoke to a family member of one of the girls to get answers as to what may have led to this.

You can read more of that story in the comments.

Today I’m celebrating my 5 year anniversary with Gray Media (WKYT’s parent company) 💙

What I’d give to go back and hug that fresh college grad who just wanted to make a difference in the place she calls home! 🫶🏻

5 years of having my dream job — getting to share the stories of the people I love so much (you all, our viewers!) 🥹 I’m so grateful!

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT:

Timothy Mitchell was arrested early this morning after the Bourbon Co. Sheriff’s Office says he broke into a garage, got into a fight with the homeowner, and allegedly killed the homeowner.

I was in Paris all morning learning new details and talking with neighbors about this situation.

Happy Derby Day 152! 🌹🐎
How are y’all celebrating today?
Here’s a look at some of my favorite Derby memories! 🤩

Last year when Alexa MintonWx and I got all dolled up for Derby 151 on WKYT Mornings & back in 2018 when I got to volunteer at Churchill Downs alongside the Miss Kentucky Scholarship Organization - take a look at that view from Millionaire’s Row! ❤️

Regardless of how you’re celebrating this year, who do you guys have your eyes on to win it all? ✨

You’ll usually see a story from me each Saturday at 6:00 p.m. but today was an exception, because I was on prom duty! 💐✨

It was so fun getting my niece ready for her first prom and hosting her and her friends for a pre-prom get-together! 🩷 I hope they have the best time!

I had the pleasure of representing WKYT at Montgomery County High School’s career fair last week! It’s always a great time getting to speak to kids about my job — and who knows, I may get to work alongside some of them one day! 🤩

If you’d like me to attend your local career fair, speak to your classroom, or even emcee an event, don’t hesitate to send me a message! 💙🎥🎤
