Nancy Khan's brutal crime: 5 key details
1. Ali Khan’s early life and career
Ali Khan was born in 1980 in Round Rock, Texas, into a close-knit family. His parents aspired for him to become a doctor since both of them were from the medical field. However, Ali found his passion in sales. In 2002, he discovered his talent for selling cars and quickly excelled, impressing his supervisors with his charisma and work ethic.
Ali rose the ranks rapidly, and by 2006, he was promoted to manage a Houston dealership. His dedication often meant working long hours, but it also brought him financial security and recognition. He was well-liked by his friends for his personality and humor.
2. Meeting Nancy Flores
After beginning his job in Houston, Ali met Nancy Flores, a woman whose life had been shaped by early tragedy. She had lost both parents in a car accident as a child and grew up more reserved and private. Despite their different upbringing, the two began dating and later moved back to Round Rock together.
Their lives seemed perfect from the outside. Ali was financially successful enough for Nancy not to work, and they enjoyed a large home and lavish vacations abroad. In September 2014, Nancy told Ali she was pregnant with their first child, a boy. Overjoyed, Ali spoke often about fatherhood and married Nancy in December 2014, believing they were building a family together.
3. Cracks in the marriage and domestic violence
However, behind this facade of wealth and happiness, their relationship was deeply troubled. Just months before their wedding, in August 2014, police were called to their home after a violent altercation. Nancy accused Ali of attacking her for not cooking meals, but deputies documented injuries on Ali instead.
Ali said that Nancy had left a bloody bite mark on his hand and had kicked and bruised him. Nancy was arrested for assault, while Ali faced a misdemeanor possession charge after marijuana was found in the house. Their marriage continued despite these conflicts, and it got worse when Ali discovered that Nancy Khan was not truly pregnant.
4. The murder of Ali Khan
On February 28, 2015, when Ali Khan failed to show up at work, a coworker went to his house to check up. But Ali did not answer. When Nancy arrived later that day, she told the coworker to wait outside and entered the home alone. Soon she started screaming.
When authorities arrived at the location, they found Ali’s body in the master bathroom. He had been shot seven times, five times in the torso and twice in the head, including a fatal shot to the forehead. Moreover, Nancy Khan claimed that valuables had been stolen, but the house showed no signs of forced entry. Evidence also suggested that Ali’s body had been moved, pointing to someone inside the home as the killer.
5. Investigation, Confession, and Conviction
When the police searched Nancy's car, they discovered Ali’s Rolex watch and other supposedly stolen items, bloody clothing, and a box of 9mm ammunition that matched shell casings at the crime scene. Blood was also found on her feet.
Nancy's alibi, that she spent the night at a friend’s house, was contradicted when the friend revealed Nancy had arrived later, already bloody, and even confessed to shooting her husband. Nancy was initially charged with tampering with evidence, but later on, she was charged with murder.
In 2018, Nancy Khan pleaded guilty to killing Ali Khan during a fight after he discovered that she was not pregnant and threatened divorce. Nancy Khan was sentenced to 40 years in prison, with a projected release date of February 28, 2055.
