Kim's murder has left her 11mo, 13yr, and 19yr Daughters to grow up without their Mother in their lives

Kim was fatally shot by her boyfriend of five years, Dennis George, 44. Dennis then killed himself. Kim died at the scene on the Root River Parkway from seven gunshot wounds to her thigh, torso and back from a 9mm handgun. Dennis died from a single gunshot wound to the head.

Throughout their relationship, Dennis was violent toward Kim. According to law enforcement, Kim reported to family and friends that Dennis had threatened her in the past with a gun. Dennis was convicted of domestic violence in the past with a gun. Dennis was convicted of domestic violence incidents involving battery against Kim in August 1999 and April 2000. In 1999, Dennis sought a restraining order against Kim which was granted since Kim did not appear in court. In 2000, Kim again sought a restraining order against Dennis which was dismissed since she did not appear in court.

On the night of the homicide, Kim and Dennis got together for drinks at a bar and her house. About 3 a.m. they went to pick up his car and never returned home. Police received a report of gunshots near the Root River Parkway and found Kim and Dennis lying outside his car. Her car was parked in front of his.
