The mother of a woman murdered in Arlington on Friday said her daughter was seven months pregnant, expecting a boy, and was probably killed by someone she knew.
Kenishia Walker, 25, was found shot to death by her eight-year-old son when he awoke Friday morning.
It happened in a town home in the 2200 block of Ridge Run Road.
“(It was) someone she had to know because she doesn’t open that door for no one she doesn’t know,” said Walker’s mother Aleshia Baglee. “So it was someone she knew who did that to her.”
Baglee said her daughter worked for Blue Cross Blue Shield and was friendly with everyone.
"She was a loving and caring daughter and friend to everyone,” Baglee said. “Anything that she has, she will let anyone have it."
Walker’s young son is now living with family members in Friars Point, Mississippi, she said.
