The Florida cheerleader who died on a Carnival cruise was reportedly strangled to death in a bar, according to a shocking report.
Anna Kepner was believed to have passed away from asphyxiation from the vicious move that comprised an arm across her neck, and even had two bruises on one side of her throat, a close source to this investigation shared with ABC News yesterday.

Previously, officials spoke about the victim not being found dead aboard the cruise, but the statement has not changed.
The examiner’s office and the FBI have reportedly refused to comment on this matter in detail. There is also no word on who carried out this gruesome act and then wrapped her remains inside a blanket, covered her in life jackets, and even stashed her under the bed. But her stepbrother was questioned on this front in the past by the FBI.

The victim’s former lover also shared how she was very scared of her stepbrother, who once tried to climb on top of her while she slept. Other sources shared how he always carried a big knife and was infatuated with the victim like crazy.
