Former NFL tight end Kevin Ware Jr. burned his girlfriend's body after he killed her, prosecutors alleged on Wednesday. Court documents revealed the gruesome details of the murder of Ware's girlfriend, Taylor Pomaski, according to an article published by the New York Post.
Pomaski, 29, was last seen fighting with Ware, 42, at a house party before she went missing in April. Witnesses reported that the two were involved in a violent fight during the party.
Following Pomaski's disappearance, local authorities tried to talk to Ware about her disappearance for several weeks. Initially, he was not named as a suspect in her disappearance. Instead, Harris County investigators said the ex-NFL player was a person of interest, along with several other witnesses who had also not come forward.
When Ware was arrested, Fox News reported that he was taken into custody by the US Marshals Service Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force at a strip mall in Spring. Deputy Marshal Alfredo Perez said:
"Apparently a lot of people were very scared of this guy. I don't know if they were scared of him because they heard that his girlfriend was missing."
According to ABC13, in June, the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office said that Kevin Ware Jr. was arrested after he failed to show up for his bond supervision hearings in April and May. They also revealed that the former San Francisco 49ers tight end was known to be in possession of a controlled substance in May and was caught for possession of a firearm in April and May.
Pomaski's body was discovered in Harris County in December. After the discovery of her body, Ware was charged with tampering with evidence.
