Summary

In the early morning hours of April 18, 2016, Missy Bevers, a 45-year-old beloved mom, wife, fitness instructor, and so much more, was murdered inside Creekside Church of Christ in Midlothian, Texas. When police checked the surveillance footage, they learned that Missy had been viciously attacked by someone wearing tactical gear, and carrying a hammer. Despite the killer being captured on camera, no suspects have ever been identified. It’s been just over eight years since Missy was killed, and investigators are still searching for the person responsible…

Missy Bevers was murdered at some point between 4:20 and 5:00 am on April 18, 2016 while she was inside the Creekside Church of Christ in Midlothian, Texas.

The police believe the suspect is 5’8” with a helmet on. They do not know the gender or race of the suspect, however they believe the suspect is light-skinned. They ask that everyone watch the video footage to see if you recognize the suspect.

Investigators are also looking for the driver of a Silver Nissan Altima, who was seen in the parking lot of SWFA Outdoors just a few hours before Missy was murdered. The driver is not a suspect, but police would like to speak to them.

If you have any information in this case, you can call Crime Stoppers of Ellis County at 972-937-7297, or call the Midlothian Police Department Criminal Investigation Division at 972-775-7634. There is a $150,000 reward.
