Alaska Murder Case Finally Closes | Anchorage News

In a long-awaited justice moment, Kirby Calderwood, 36, received an 87-year sentence for murdering Anesha Murnane, 38, who vanished from an Alaska assisted living facility in October 2019. After years of searching, Calderwood confessed in 2022 — admitting he killed her in a crawlspace, with DNA evidence confirming it. Investigators also found her watch and a missing person poster at his Utah home. He’d already pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in February, but this sentencing brings closure to a case that gripped Homer, Alaska, and Murnane’s family.
