IG Model Miss Mercedes Morr Killed In Murder-Suicide

Social media users are mourning the death of popular Instagram model Miss Mercedes Morr, who was found dead in her apartment over the weekend.

On Sunday, the beloved Houston influencer was found deceased during a welfare check at her home at the Cortland Apartments at approximately 4:30 p.m. The body of 34-year-old Kevin Alexander Accorto was also located in the apartment. Investigators say that Accorto murdered the model, whose real name is Jenae Gagnier, before taking his own life.

The Fort Bend County Medical Examiner concluded that Accorto strangled Gagnier to death before killing himself with “multiple sharp force trauma.” The relationship between the two is unclear and what could have prompted him to commit such a heinous act.

The 33-year-old model was well known on social media, with 2.6 million followers on Instagram. Condolences continue to pour in under her last post, which she shared a week ago.

Before the news officially broke that the model was the victim of a murder-suicide, several rumors began to swirl about the circumstances of her death on social media. Some people stated that she had died from complications stemming from COVID-19, with others claimed that Miss Mercedes Morr was the victim of a robbery.
