Unsolved Murder in Katy

It's a nice house in a nice neighborhood.  It is your stereotypical suburbia where people keep nice houses, manicured lawns, and all the dirty laundry locked away in the closet (but that's another post).  Today this neighborhood lies among a busy, metropolitan area crammed with businesses and traffic.  However back in 1987 this area was developing.  The main road, Mason, was mostly prairie with a BBQ joint and a 7-11.  People were starting to move out west from Houston to settle the Katy area.  This house on Kent Falls was a model home being used by Standard Pacific Homes to lure new settlers.  A young mother of two, Ester Collins worked for this company.  On November 06, 1987, a home seeking couple came here and found Ester's body.  Ester had been bound, gagged, and stabbed numerous times.  24 years later and detectives have virtually no leads.  Her two children are still involved in trying to find their mother's killer.  I drove out here one night and looked at the house.  I don't know if it's my knowledge of this house's history or just the fact the street light here didn't seem to work but I had an erie feeling.  I stared at the house where Ester spent her final minutes, terrified, probably hoping and praying she would survive this ordeal to see her family again.  I hope one day they can find who did this and give her family some peace.
