Brevard County Woman Arrested for Fatally Stabbing Her Mother

A shocking incident unfolded in Brevard County, Florida, where a woman has been accused of brutally stabbing her own mother to death. The Brevard County Sheriff’s Office received a distress call early Tuesday morning from a residence located on Seagull Drive in Barefoot Bay. Upon arrival, deputies discovered the lifeless body of the victim, who had suffered multiple stab wounds, according to a news release by the sheriff’s office.

The victim has been identified as 69-year-old Cheryl Meurer, who tragically lost her life at the hands of her own daughter, 49-year-old Kelly Tinsley. Investigators have pieced together the events leading up to the fatal altercation, which they believe occurred on Monday night. Tinsley and her mother engaged in a heated argument that escalated into a violent confrontation, resulting in Meurer’s untimely demise.

Law enforcement officials have arrested Tinsley in connection with the incident, charging her with manslaughter. The charge has been reclassified due to the use of a weapon during the commission of the crime. As investigations continue, the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office Homicide Unit is urging anyone with pertinent information to come forward. They can contact the unit directly at 321-633-8413 or anonymously provide information through CRIMELINE at 1-800-423-TIPS (8477).
