More details emerge in death of Long Island nursing student Kelly Owen - The Washington Time
Kelly Owen, 27, normally heads over to her daughter’s school at 3 p.m., Nassau Police Det. Lt. Stephen Fitzpatrick said at a Thursday press conference, according to Newsday.

But instead, Owen’s parents returned home at 3:30 p.m. and found their daughter’s car still in the driveway, according to the police official.

“That is what alarmed them to what had happened,“ Fitzpatrick said. “They went in and discovered her body.”
 
Sources: South Farmingdale woman was strangled

SABBM:
Nassau Police say when they responded to the home they found the body of Kelly Owen, a mother of a 6-year-old girl, in her bed. News 12 sources say she was strangled.

Authorities say there appears to be no obvious signs of a break in. Neighbors say the area has always been safe.

Detective Lt. Stephen Fitzpatrick says Kelly was a nursing student, currently on a break, and an active member of the PTA at her daughter’s school.

Authorities say she was found dead by her parents after they noticed her car still in the driveway Wednesday afternoon – a time when she is normally at the school.

No signs of forced entry.

She wouldn't normally have been home at this time.

Sounds like the killer is someone she knew.

The fact she was found in her bed leads me to believe she may have been killed early in the day...who gets her daughter ready for school? I imagine it is her since she’s so active in the PTA and also picks her up.
So why was she in her bed?
Did she have a consensual encounter that went horribly wrong? Would explain the lack of break in if she let the person in.
I hope neighbors or her own house has cameras.

eta- oops just saw neighbor has ring and is sharing with police.

Sounds like KO got her daughter up and ready for school that morning.
Per MSM reports, she woke up around 8 am, got her daughter ready and then her father took her to school.
I'm assuming by "her father," they mean KO's father, but it's a little unclear to me based on how it was written in articles. I suppose "her father" could mean the daughter's father. Need to dig around to make sure it was KO's dad who took her daughter to school.

One thing I'm wondering is whether she normally took her daughter to school on Thursdays and then went to nursing school herself, or whether she was normally home by herself on Thursday mornings.

The article is hard to read, thanks for clarifying. I actually work at a nursing school and the students will typically take advantage of break to relax and study. They never seem to stop studying. I also know a lot have a bad habit of reading in bed, because they’re more comfortable.
Maybe her routine is to take the daughter to school before class and due to the break, she went back to bed and or was studying.
I just don’t understand how or why she would be back in the bed. That’s very intimate. A stranger would not insist they go to a bedroom to strangle. It’s also not a place to flee from someone. It’s usually a persons safe haven.
 
Has anyone had any luck finding any SM for her?

I've been looking for her FB since it was referenced in one of the MSM articles, but turns out, there are around a billion people on the planet named Kelly Owen. And they all have FB accounts.
