Kristin and her father reportedly went to her former home to pick up some belongings. Unaware that her husband had been released from jail, they were met with gunfire.
He was arrested last month on suspicion of seven counts of aggravated assault and one count of criminal threat. Authorities are not required to notify victims when suspects are released under Kansas law.
Kristin leaves behind six children ranging in ages 3 to 12. To help Kristin's children, a GoFundMe page has been set up in her honor.
