Evansville, Indiana — The Chronicle News
The Southern Indiana community is heartbroken following confirmation that the woman found earlier this week at the Bluegrass Fish and Wildlife Area in Warrick County has been identified as Kristina Robinson. Authorities made the announcement on Wednesday morning, marking a deeply emotional moment for family, friends, and residents across the region.
Kristina’s body was discovered in a secluded section of the Bluegrass Fish and Wildlife Area, a peaceful nature reserve known for its lakes, trails, and wildlife — a place where many go to find calm and beauty. Instead, it became the site of tragedy and sorrow as police launched a full investigation into her untimely passing.
As of 8:45 a.m. Wednesday, officials have not released further details regarding the cause or manner of her death. The Indiana State Police, in collaboration with the Warrick County Sheriff’s Office and the Warrick County Coroner’s Office, continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the discovery. Authorities have emphasized that this remains an active and ongoing investigation, and updates will be shared as they become available.
A Beloved Soul Remembered
While official information remains limited, what has become clear is that Kristina Robinson’s life touched many. Friends describe her as kind-hearted, free-spirited, and always eager to help others. She had a quiet strength that drew people in — a warmth that made even brief encounters unforgettable.
Those who knew her say Kristina loved nature and often visited local parks and wildlife areas to clear her mind and connect with the outdoors. “She was the kind of person who found peace in places like Bluegrass,” one friend shared. “It breaks our hearts to know that her story ended there.”
What Authorities Have Shared So Far
Before confirming her identity, authorities released a description of the woman to help identify her. She was described as a white female, late teens to early 30s, dark hair, approximately 5 feet tall, and weighing around 130 pounds.
Investigators also mentioned a distinct tattoo — a heart outlined in black with a ribbon that extends from both sides. There were no words or color within the tattoo, and it became one of the key identifying features that ultimately helped connect her to loved ones who had been searching for answers.
