Bond lowered to $300K for woman caught on video running over stranger before stabbing his limp body

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — A judge significantly lowered bond for a suspect charged in a disturbing murder caught on camera in Houston.

Karon Fisher, 20, is charged with murder in the death of 64-year-old Steven Anderson. Her bond was lowered to $300,000 for the charge.

Fisher’s bond was previously set at $900,000 after the state initially requested a $2 million bond.

Prosecutors have requested a hearing to deny bond altogether, but the hearing hasn’t happened yet.

If Fisher posts bond, she will be placed under 24-hour house arrest with a GPS monitoring device and cannot use drugs or alcohol.

According to court records, Fisher was also charged with assault of a public servant on Sunday for allegedly biting a jailer who was trying to break up a fight.

Documents identified Fisher as a man, but police said she identifies as a woman.

On May 3, Fisher allegedly ran over Anderson twice as he was walking to check his mailbox on Woodridge Square Drive, according to the Houston Police Department.

A graphic video of the murder then shows Fisher kissing Anderson’s limp body before stabbing him multiple times.

Anderson died at the scene.

The Harris County District Attorney’s Office said there was no relationship between Fisher and Anderson.

“What we know at this point is there was no relationship. They were complete strangers, which made it even more shocking and horrific,” Harris County district attorney Ryan Trask said.

In a jailhouse interview with Reporter Brooke Taylor earlier this month, Fisher said she had zero regrets about the attack.

During the interview at the Harris County Jail, cameras and cellphones were not allowed. Taylor and Fisher were separated by a small room with a glass window.

Fisher was aware of previous reports and had seen the chilling video, yet she said she had zero remorse.

She said the murder was completely random, and it could have been anyone that day.

Fisher told she remembers the day clearly, standing on top of Anderson’s body and feeling as if she knew him, though she said she had never interacted with him before.

She acknowledged a history of mental health issues her whole life. She said she came out as transgender at 16 years old and was prostituting. She said she remembers being young and crying at motels, thinking she had to sell her body for a place to stay.

During the conversation, Fisher kept saying, “God saved me that day,” and said she would live with her actions.

Records show Fisher was on community supervision for five years for evading arrest in 2023. Records show she was also charged with prostitution in 2021, but the case was later dismissed.

Fisher was also charged with assaulting a staff member at the hospital on the same day as the murder.

According to family and friends, Anderson had retired after working at the MD Anderson Cancer Center as a manager for about 20 years.

Anderson, known as “Pops,” leaves behind a daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren and was known for his love of the Chicago Cubs.
