Friends of Ebony Turner said he Boyfriend Claude Hudson was murdered less than 6 months apart


Friends of Ebony Turner said the 23-year-old was struggling to cope with Claude Hudson’s murder.  They said the two were dating when he was murdered in Kansas City, Kan., last August.  They can’t believe the number of homicides this year.
“We have 25 people who have lost their lives to homicide. That is a lot to us, one is enough,” said friend Tamika Pledger.
Turner’s murder on Sunday makes the city’s 25th homicide.  Turner was found shot to death in her car near the 2600 block of Parallel Parkway.  Hudson’s family said the couple’s deaths remain unsolved.
Investigators believe Turner was an innocent victim.
"We're concerned about helping her and her family to get through this. I don't believe at this point, that she was doing anything to warrant someone taking her life," said assistant Police Chief Terence Hall.
Turner graduated from the Donnelly College C.N.A.  program in 2010.
“She was a good nurse she was helper she was someone who liked to help people so she went into the nursing field,” said Pledger.
