Raymer, her younger brother, loved getting her random phone calls.
“She’d always give me a call, ‘Hey brother this is what I’m doing now, I love you guys, tell the babies,’ you know, my children, ‘That I love them and miss them,” he said. “She’s never going to call me baby bro anymore.”
Murray was always hanging out with friends and lived with some in Jacksonville, according to her brother. Murray had disabilities and was high-functioning mentally handicapped, but Raymer said that didn’t stop her from living life.
“Life skills, she knew how to take care of her day-to-day needs, it was a matter of anything beyond that like guidance if she needed anything,” he said.
Police said she died of blunt force trauma and was found in a dirt lot on Pickettville Road; the case hasn’t been solved.
“It was surreal, it still is, it’s in my mind that someone murdered my sister and it’s a hard thing to swallow,” he said. “I’ll never understand why anyone would do that to a handicapped person, any person at all.”
As her entire family grieves, Raymer said getting justice would help them heal and has a message for whoever is responsible.
“The human side of me wants to say not nice things but if you’re listening, I hope you have the conscience and you want to come forward and clear your conscience and pay your debt to society you now owe,” he said.
