Police say Houston murder suspect found sleeping on couch after allegedly stabbing 2-year-old sister

HOUSTON – Houston police arrested a man accused of fatally stabbing his sister and her child.

Kendrick Rayvon Fisher, 29, is charged with capital murder.

The stabbing occurred at the Knox Westchase Apartments on Richmond Avenue on Friday morning.

Houston police officers were stopped by someone who told them a woman and her child were being held hostage in an apartment.

When police arrived at the apartment, they found the bodies of a 28-year-old woman and a 2-year-old boy with multiple stab wounds.

According to police, Fisher was sleeping on the couch with his clothes covered in blood.

Officers also said Fisher suffered injuries consistent with a physical fight.

The suspect’s mother, Joanna Fischer, said she warned police about her son after he threatened to kill the entire family.

Fischer blames the death on the passivity of the police.

“I want to tell you all how the police failed us,” Fischer told FOX 26.

Fischer said her son had recently been released from prison and had a history of violence against family members.

Kendrick Fisher is currently in the Harris County Jail. His bail is set at $200,000.
