Lexington, KY: STATE POLICE OFFICIALLY RELEASE ID OF ANDERSON COUNTY MURDER VICTIM

Posted: Sep 7, 2010 12:46 PM

Kentucky State Police have officially released the name of a woman killed over the weekend in Anderson County in a suspected domestic violence incident.

Police say the medical examiner has identified Frances Renee Mobley, 33, as the victim in the incident, which happened Saturday afternoon at a home on Bardstown Road. Police have charged Gary Bancroft with murder in Moberly's death.

Mobley's father, Benny Mobley, told LEX 18 that his daughter and Bancroft had been in an abusive relationship. He said several months ago that Bancroft had allegedly thrown a knife at his daughter but missed, instead hitting a wall.

Benny Mobley says his daughter leaves behind two children, a 16-year-old and a 7-year-old.

Bancroft is being held in the Franklin County Detention Center. His bond is set at $500,000.
