Vanessa Melson from Grapeland (Near Palestine) was murdered two years ago and nobody has been charged with her murder. Other charges were filed but no murder charges yet. I have not read or heard any updates in quite a while. Her body was found in a shallow grave due to a tipster.

In Ricki Taylor's case I wonder if LE already knows who murdered her and are just getting their ducks in a row before the arrest. That is the only thing I can come up with as to why no news on her murder.
Wow. This guy didn't give a crap who saw this. I have my ideas...http://m.ktre.com/ktre/pm_/contentdetail.htm?contentguid=od:XREaQRNv
Feb '17 was the latest update I've found, still no official charges.
Since you're local, did you hear about this story? It happened prior to Ricki going missing.

PALESTINE, TX (KLTV) - Palestine police are investigating a reported disturbance where a woman was apparently struck by a pickup, then forced to get inside.
Around 1:35 a.m. Wednesday, police were called to the intersection of West Palestine Avenue and Esplanade Street.
According to a news release, witnesses reported seeing a while female exit a red late model extended-cab pickup. The woman appeared to be intentionally struck by the truck.
When the witnesses approached the vehicle, the driver, a white male, got out and pulled a gun, the release stated.
The driver ordered the woman to get back in the truck, which left the scene heading west on Palestine Avenue.
Officers were unable to locate the pickup.
A description of the man and woman in the truck was not released.

Sounds like a domestic issue, certainly something to look into if potentially related
Palestine police have reportedly made an arrest in the murder case of Ricki Deann Taylor, the Herald-Press has learned. City officials would neither confirm nor deny the arrest.
However, the Anderson County Sheriff's Office confirmed Andrew Taylor's arrest for the murder.
City spokesman Nate Smith, contacted by the Herald-Press early Saturday morning, said the city would make an announcement later this morning.
