Arrest Made in 15-Year West Des Moines Realtor Slaying
Kristin Ramsey, 53, was arrested on first-degree murder charges in the 2011 killing of Ashley Okland, a 27-year-old realtor who was shot during an open house in West Des Moines. A Dallas County grand jury issued the indictment, and Ramsey is held on a $2 million cash-only bond. Authorities have not disclosed a motive or any connection between Ramsey and Okland, and the case was revived after years of investigation, drawing strong reaction from family and the local real estate community.
