🔵John Kraft | Kimberly Kessler Case-File

Описание: Convicted killer Kimberly Kessler will spend the rest of her life in prison for the murder of 34-year-old Joleen Cummings.

Cummings was reported missing on Mother’s Day 2018, after she failed to pick up her three children. Both Kessler and Cummings worked at the Tangles Hair Salon in Fernandina Beach at the time. Police said Kessler was the last person to see Cummings alive while they were both inside the salon.

Kessler's mental health has been an issue in the case from the beginning. After initially declaring her mentally incompetent to go to trial, the judge later said Kessler was capable of understanding the case against her. She also had used multiple aliases across several states.

The 53-year-old refused to participate in the trial, however, and created disruptions during her brief court appearances. She spent most of the trial in a separate room with a video link to the proceedings.

At one point, emaciated from self-starvation, Kessler sat in an anti-suicide smock staring at the camera during a hearing and screamed an obscenity at the judge.

Jail officials also informed the court she’d regularly strip naked and spread feces on the window of her observation cell.

Despite the outbursts, and her perilous health condition — having dropped from an intake weight of 196 to a low of 74 — she was found mentally competent for trial.

On May 16, 2018, police located Kessler sleeping inside a black Kia Soul at a rest area off of Interstate 95 in St. John’s County. She was arrested and charged with grand theft auto, based on the footage of her driving the victim’s car. Police also noted she had scratches on one hand and one eye.

In June 2018, Nassau County Sheriff Bill Leeper announced at a press conference that Kessler has lived under 17 names in 33 cities spanning over 14 states since 1996. He said that he doesn’t believe Nassau County, located in the northeast corner of the sunshine state along the Atlantic Ocean, has ever seen a case like it before.

“We’re not quite sure yet why all the disguises or if she has been involved in the disappearance of anyone else before, but it seems she is definitely running from something,” Leeper told reporters.
