Jean Shepherd’s Granddaughter Murdered

 The granddaughter of the late country singer Jean Shepard and her boyfriend were killed at Shepard’s Hendersonville, Tenn., home Dec. 17, according to police, and Shephard’s husband suffered multiple stab wounds.

 The New York Post reports Shepard’s teenage granddaughter, Icie Hawkins, was stabbed multiple times while her boyfriend, 21-year-old Travis Sanders, died from a gunshot wound, according to police.

 The police stopped short of giving a motive, saying the incident was an isolated incident and the community was not in danger.

 Shepard passed away in September.
