About this listen

 The source details the shocking murder of 16-year-old Kaye Ellis in Iowa Park, Texas, a case that initially appeared as a typical teenage mishap but quickly unraveled into a web of familial deceit and betrayal. It recounts the discovery of Kaye's body in her family's garage and the subsequent police investigation that led to the uncovering of secret relationships involving both Kaye and her mother, Rhonda, with their youth pastor, Chase Harmon. The text outlines the arrest and trial of Kaye's parents, Rhonda and Mark Ellis, who were ultimately convicted of first-degree murder for her brutal beating death, driven by rage and religious guilt after Kaye threatened to expose the affair. It concludes by describing the aftermath and lasting impact of the tragedy on the small, faith-driven community and the lives of all involved.
