On June 18, 2023 first responders arrived at the scene of a residence on Arkansas Creek in Martin, Kentucky. Martin is a tiny community near Prestonsburg. Later, Kentucky State Police announced that they had found 39 year old Amber Spradlin dead at the scene due to a knife attack. The community is in an uproar as more than one 911 was made before anyone showed up to the scene. Could Amber’s life have possibly been saved that night? Prestonsburg interim Police Chief Ross Shurtleff said the 911 center didn’t receive any calls from Amber Spradlin on June 18. All calls from that day have been forwarded to the Kentucky State Police for their investigation. If you or anyone you know has information that could help this murder investigation please contact the Kentucky State Police at 1.606.433.7711
