KPRC 2 News reporter Corley Peel first reported on Gamble\u2019s case last month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">Gamble\u2019s family said was admitted to a Houston hospital on November 19 for altered mental status. She left the hospital that day in the company of a man she had just met. Days later, she was dead inside his apartment.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 etvbxt font_openSans articleList\">\n<li class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Stack-vJ7SwH7U__StackBase-sc-1m5bkhd-0 evEXvX dsnUCb\"\/><\/ul>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">According to the autopsy, Gamble likely suffered from diabetic ketoacidosis and other serious health conditions. However, investigators found blood on the man\u2019s hands and clothing, blood in multiple locations throughout the apartment, an apparent odor of cleaning products and Gamble\u2019s body in the early stages of decomposition when authorities arrived.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">Despite those findings, doctors found no fatal injuries and could not rule out foul play. The medical examiner ruled both the cause and manner of death undetermined.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">Gamble\u2019s sister, Rebekah Falke, described her reaction to reading the autopsy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">\u201cI was disturbed and just completely disgusted,\u201d Falke said. \u201cLots of things that are in the autopsy that you don\u2019t want to read about a loved one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">Social media videos posted on the man\u2019s Facebook page show Gamble alive on November 19 and 20. But according to the autopsy report, a video from November 25 appears to show Gamble on an air mattress, possibly already deceased. The man did not call 911 until November 27 and told police Gamble had not moved in three days.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 etvbxt font_openSans articleList\">\n<li class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Stack-vJ7SwH7U__StackBase-sc-1m5bkhd-0 evEXvX dsnUCb\"\/><\/ul>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">Falke says a ball of her sister\u2019s hair was found near a bible in the apartment. She alleges the man slept beside her sister\u2019s body for hours before calling for help.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">Houston Police initially closed the case without an arrest. After questions from the family, and calls from KPRC 2 News, investigators reopened the case. HPD confirmed to KPRC 2 News that it remains an active investigation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">Records show a troubling criminal history linked to the man. Court records show he was previously charged with murder in a 2013 case involving a woman whose body was found dumped in a ditch. Those murder charges were later dismissed, but he was convicted of interference with a human corpse and served seven years in prison.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">Houston Police have not officially named the man as a suspect and he has not been charged in connection with Gamble\u2019s death.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">Falke says too much time has passed without answers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">\u201cI just want some accountability. I want people to actually look into what happened to my sister. She by no means deserved to not have the dignity that she deserved in her last bit of life,\u201d Falke said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Box-_wrDxHtU__Box-sc-10sa3ie-0 Text-nO2aZ44r__TextBase-sc-s2hv5x-0 jJNfBD fSvavs article-text\">The investigation is ongoing.
