Khalid White was sentenced to 30 years in prison for the murder of a 41-year-old Fort Collins woman Thursday, according to The Colo- radoan. White, 30, was sentenced to 30 years at The Department of Cor- rections after he pled guilty to sec- ond-degree murder in the trial for the murder of Kimberlee Graves at the Larimer County Justice Cen- ter. Graves was last seen on Dec. 4 2017 and was reported missing on Dec. 8. Police said Graves was report- edly killed on the morning of Dec. 5, and her body was discovered in Lory State Park by a ranger on duty on Jan. 9, according to The Colora- doan. The Larimer County Coroner’s Office ruled Grave’s death as a ho- micide due to her injuries. Accord- ing to the Larimer County Coro- ner’s Office, there was evidence of blunt-force trauma, signs of stran- gulation and evidence that could be indicative of sexual assault.
