Man arrested following Friday’s homicide in Radcliff

One man has been arrested after a woman was found dead in Radcliff Friday. Police responded to a residence off of Scenic Drive after reports of a possibly deceased individual. Police found the victim, identified later as Angela Dawn Kerr, 27, of Grayson County, lying naked outside of the residence’s rear door. Hardin County EMS confirmed Kerr was deceased. Police say Kerr had suffered multiple gunshots wounds. Police also determined that Kerr’s clothing had been cut off, and that her body had been removed from inside the residence. Later, it was determined that Joseph Meredith had been with Kerr. Detectives later found Meredith walking a short distance  from the residence, in possession of a handgun believed to be used in the shooting. Meredith was arrested and charged with murder, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and abuse of corpse. He’s being held in the Hardin County Detention Center on a $500,000 cash bond. Meredith was expected in court Monday morning.
