The Ohio State University psychology major whom police believe was murdered by a registered sex offender was a straight A student excited about May graduation.

Reagan Tokes, 21, of Columbus, Ohio, vanished after leaving work at a local bar on February 8. Her frantic family members and friends circulated missing posts on social media. Then, a coroner confirmed that a body found shot to death in a nearby park is Tokes.

That left a shaken community and campus wondering: Who killed the vivacious young woman? Police now have an answer: They’ve arrested a registered sex offender named Brian Lee Golsby, and they say they believe the attack was random.

“Of all the people in this world we find ourselves asking why her?” wrote one friend on a GoFundMe site established to help Tokes’ family.
