A former NFL player has confessed to murdering his girlfriend, whose remains surfaced months after her family reported her missing when they lost contact with her on Mother’s Day.

Kevin Ware, 44, was sentenced to 30 years in prison for the brutal murder of Taylor Pomaski, 29, according to Harris County, Texas, court documents. Pomaski’s remains were discovered months after she was last seen alive in April 2021; authorities revealed she had been beaten, stabbed, strangled, and burned.

Besides confessing to the murder, Ware also pleaded guilty to tampering with evidence for desecrating the victim’s body. According to court records obtained by Houston’s NBC affiliate KPRC, the victim’s corpse was set on fire after her death.

As Law&Crime previously reported, Taylor Pomaski, 29, was last seen April 25, 2021, after a party. After she went missing, investigators said Ware was uncooperative in search efforts and quickly became a person of interest. In December 2021, human remains were discovered in North Harris County, and presumed to belong to Pomaski.

The deceased woman’s identity was confirmed via forensic testing in early May 2022. Under the glare of formal speculation for over a year, the defendant was indicted for Pomaski’s murder in late July 2022. Ware had actually been arrested the month before for allegedly violating bond conditions on weapon and drug charges he incurred less than a week before his then-girlfriend went missing.

Witnesses would later report that the couple had a violent altercation during the small party where Pomaski was last seen alive.

Ware admitted in court documents to killing her on or about April 28, 2021. Her family reported her missing on May 11 of that year after she uncharacteristically did not reach out on Mother’s Day, which was also her father’s birthday.

“She never missed that type of stuff,” her mother, Leslie Mandeville, told Inside Edition in a June 2021 report. “Never.”
