KYLE, Texas -- One year after Kyle Police crime victims counselor Samantha Dean was found shot dead in her car, loved ones and law enforcement gathered to honor and remember her Thursday.

Dean's mother could be heard crying as she and Kyle Police Chief Jeff Barnett shoveled dirt on a tree planted in her honor. The two embraced, and the crowd released dozens of pink balloons into the morning's clear sky.

At the time of her death, Dean was seven months pregnant.

Former Austin Police Officer VonTrey Clark has since been charged with capital murder along with another man, Keven Watson. They remain in jail and both have court hearings later this month.
